Sorry another question: which rod are you using? I couldn't quite make it out when you said it in the video. Also do you think rollered rods are a good idea (especially if also using them for trolling)? I just bought the Next 300 reel - very similar to your Poseidon SL50 (which I couldn't find in Australia) just a slightly different gear ratio.
Iam using a 4 foot 10 pe4 to 8 jignesis x-predator rod. Roller rods good for trolling for game fishing. For kings short jigging rods way to go. 5 foot 3 is a common length.
Loved this video, awesome! However I think regardless of gear and technique, the main problem is, as always, point #1 - finding that magic location that has fish 😂
@@YoufishingTV Do you have a set of marks you keep coming back to or do you literally drive around structure looking for the telltale marks on the sounder? (Asking because I've had no luck with kingies so far - got a few rats at The Peak and Long Reef, never yet found a spot where they are plentiful... or am I just not out at the right times)
@@andreas1161 This time of the year they will be plenty at long reef, and along the cliffs South head Bondi, coogee etc all the way to royal national park there are specific sets of spots along the cliffs, Good if you downrigg so you are moving and try to find them. Then you have the obvious spots like 12 mile and the peak. Timing is important and Baits are important, too the big meteries are at the offshore reef atm.
Maxel transformer is similar and good too. I had one before. This one however is a poseidon 50SL. max drag 30KG weighing only 345 grams for just abit over $300. ua-cam.com/video/GdUtbzaR25k/v-deo.html
This is mechanical jigging not slow jigging.So the setup needs to be strong also depends how much you want to spend. Would recommend a 5 foot or 5 foot 3 rod.That has parabolic action. Rods like murasame, jigging master, Jignesis,Oceans legacy Andrenalin, Daiwa DB solid. As for overhead reels, the lever drag reels packs more drag so avoid the star drags which are mainly for slow jigging. Reels like Maxel,Jigging master or Daiwa saltiga in the LD10H to 20 size. Lines 50 to 65lb braid will do, leaders 60lb to 80lb flouro.Knife style Jigs 150 to 250 grams depends on dephts. Good luck.
Similar but it is a Poseidon 50SL. max drag 30KG weighing only 345 grams for just abit over $300. The handle is adjustable on the fly too. Can be a slow jigger. Someone's unboxing here ua-cam.com/video/GdUtbzaR25k/v-deo.html
awesome video. those berkley skid lures r awesome especially the blue gold. used to had the 20g one till i lost it cause of a bloody backlash.
Thanks for watching. Yep these skid jigs are awsome particularly the smaller ones for snappers.

Thanks for watching and commenting as always. Yep definitely, the trick is to jig where there are fish.

@@YoufishingTV Thank you! I'll try Peak or 12-mile again on the next calm day...
Nice work. What reel are you running there? I am looking at a new Maxel Transformer F50

Why write Sydney when you're clearly nowhere near Sydney?
