The BEST Yellowtail Kingfish Bait Ever! | Landbased Fishing Australia
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 жов 2024
- In this episode, I head out fishing in the iconic Sydney Harbour to Target the mighty Yellowtail Kingfish with Adam/Spinkingsyd. The weather was 35c+ and it was an absolute scorcher of a day! We use heavy rods which enable us to deadlift bigger species from the highly elevated Piers. There are some BIG fish to be had in these waters & that’s the aim of the game! I hook up to a mental little Yellowtail Kingfish which had me driving around multiple pylons trying to land the bugger. Sometimes the little ones are more aerobatic than the sheer brute strength of the bigger models. The Top Secret bait of choice, Live Prawns aka Inshore Kingfish Candy!
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ABOUT FISHING WITH MARKI MARK ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I’m Marki Mark, a passionate saltwater fisherman from Australia that likes to go out for a flick and land some fish. I generally fish from wharf's and piers primarily using bait & livies however not afraid to use some lures when the right time presents itself.

Amazing place very show Congratulations!
Have a very successful week!
Stay with God!👍🎣🐟🐠😊
Thank you, you too! tight lines.
My man smashed the kings and the edits well played AGAIN mark and Adam yewww
FishinWithBezre Thank you for the support from day one bro!
Love your videos man, keep it up, never been into fishing but after watching you, I’m inlove with it, but honestly keep it up, would be spreading your channel out as much as I can
Thank you for the kind words mate, comments like yours keep me striving to produce more. Cheers and glad you enjoyed :)
Awesome video guys.Just a tip if you haven't already thought of it.use a long stick or something to splash the water to scare the kingies away from the Pylons.so they don't bust ya off.well that's what I have done in the past.
Thanks for the kind words mate! I fish solo most of the time mate, so would be difficult. Also its a super long drop to the water and would be difficult to reach, that's why we lift up the fish :) or climb the ladder down if its super big! Glad you enjoyed it!
Quality fish quality content keep up the good job guys. You guys are killing it 🤙
Thanks for the kind words mate! Doing it for the positive feedback like this. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hi Mark great video who started the live prawn phenomenon with kingfish ,like prawns are always in the sand on the bottom if you know what I mean ? Also are you using 20lb to get them to bite better ? , or can you get away with 30 to 40lb fluorocarbon to get a 2nd chance for bigger fish if the hit structure or is that to much mate ?
Thanks for the kind words mate! I got shown years ago when they were in season and they were gun! I remember some of my buddies catching 15-20 kings per day on them, with yakkas / squid in the water as well getting minimal hits. But not sure who came across it. Yes mate, you gotta go light to get the bight. Bare minimum i'd go here is 20lb. The sweet safe spot would be 30-50lb fluorocarbon. Its so sharp down there with barnacles even 150lb won't save you, it would probably buy you another 2 seconds. So i'd rather hookup on 30-40lb then hardly get touched on 150lb which I have seen some people use there. In Port hacking I find you have to fish light there or you wont get touched at all 20-30lb max! Hope that helps.
Been waiting for another video, and here you are . Smashing set mate . Well done as always! keep it up
Thanks for the kind words and support as always my dude! Glad you enjoyed the video. Tight lines :)
Mark where do you get your live prawns from? Loves your videos, keep up the good work! 👏👏👏
Hey mate there are some Restaurants you can get them from in the city but they are super expensive. So we go prawning at night and we have a tank that we keep them in at home :)
Yewwww let's get it is brother! Mad session 🤜🤛🔥
Pleasure as always my dude! :) yewwwwww.
yewwww, i've been trying to catch kingfish for about 2 and a half years with no luck, might give this spot a try!
Jordy Stansell Thanks bud, goodluck in your hunt to catch your first Kingfish :)
Fishin' with Marki Mark heading down there today, thanks!
Another great video! What knot do you use to tie up your braid to flurocarbon leader?
Mate all I tie now is FG's. I tie a pretty efficient uni-2-uni but it just doesn't hold up as well or cast through the guides as well. Practice your fg's and they will outlast your uni knot to your hook any day of the week :) Hope that helps & glad you enjoyed it mate!
Awesome video , cheers from t 🐅
Hahahaha
Hey mate that spot looks amazing!I was thinking about getting a Daiwa Saltist hyper light rock special with a Daiwa Saltist MQ 6000 with 40 or 50lb braid on it,will it handle big kingfish in the harbor and outside when rock fishing?
Thanks man, definitely.. plenty of guts on that outfit :)
Hey mate I know u did deadlift the kingfish with 20lb but do u reccomend doing that with the 20? Is it better to buy 30lb because Im not bothered to buy a net😂
Hey man, honestly anything under 75cm you'll be able to dead lift on 20lb. You can definitely play it safe and have a bit more confidence on 30lb. Generally the lighter you go the more hookups... but could be more heartbreaks haha!
do you reckon prawns weightless or under a float for kings.
Mate, I've done both methods.. But I stick with weightless more so. Float is great just have to adjust and go deeper as the sun comes up to match the fish in the water column :) hope that helps.
Hey mark, amazing video I have one question about how you you set up your float rig like this?
Hey man, appreciate the kind words? What would you like to know about it ? :)
@@FishingwithMarkiMark do you put a float stopper on the braid to stop the float and if so how far up do you put it?
@@DariusFishing Hey man I wind on about 6m+ of leader onto my spool when fishing the piers. It gives me added abrasion resistance from the pylons. Sunrise I put the float stopper about 3m or so. As the day progresses I find the kingfish go deeper and adjust my float stop so that my bait holds deeper too. Hope that helps.
Excellent work boys
I still need to catch my first kingy lol
Thanks for the Kind words my dude! Get out there mate, the season is only getting better!
Great session, did you go during a week day? That spot is usually packed.
Thanks mate, this was a weekend. Wasn't packed many years ago, had it to myself! :)
Do you have any tips on when to strike when using live baits?Do I strike when my rod is bending or it is already screaming drag?I use J hooks on live yakka
Answered on your other post :) cheers
AWESOME VIDEO MY FRIEND
Thanks for the kind word and support mate! :)
Hey mate what is that white Shimano fishing rod called
Hey mate, most of my outfits are in the description box above ^ but for the white shimano rod its the "Shimano Terez 7”2 30-50lb White" very nice rod :)
Good job mark great catch’s keep up the great work
Thank you for the kind words mate & tight lines :)
Thanks for the great video mate, where abouts is this spot? Would love to get stuck into some big kingies. Keep up the great work 👍
Thanks for the kind words mate, its at the fingerwharfs at the harbour!
@@FishingwithMarkiMark is there parking nearby? I mean around pier 8/9
I went to the piers yesterday and dropped a really small live prawn on a really light bream setup for trevally and as soon as I dropped it I thought I hooked the bottom and then the drag went, almost got spooled on my small 2500. I managed to turn it but then got me in the pylons just as I got him in close. Planning on doing a lot more fishing at the piers do you know where I can buy those Rod holders that strap onto the wood and then you sit your rod on them?
Hey mate, ahhh bugger super tough on light gear mate. Watch my latest video on how I landed a legal king on 10lb gear! Yeah my man, its called Zenith Zinc Plate Power Tool Storage Hook and get yourself a ratchet tie down strap from bunnings. Personally I don't use them, I'm a one rod type of guy. I also like the feeling of getting the take in my hand and drag already set ready to go. I've seen too many setups fly off with tight drag in those holders unfortunately :(
@@FishingwithMarkiMark Sweet will just give holding an individual rod in my hand. I like your logic.
Hey mate what pier would you recommend taking kids. Just for a couple bream or something 🙏
Hey mate, I think you can fish all of them at the moment except the one opposite this as its residendial/gated. All pretty much will hold a variety of species. Just head to the one least busy and cast unweighted pillie cubes or prawns and the kiddies will have a blast!
Hi how are you?
I go to walsh bay every week now a days.
Because i really wanna catch kingfish🥺
But i haven't seen it yet.
Which season can i see the kingfish?
All of season or summer?
I'm so happy to hear your advice
Thank you🙌
Hey mate, thanks for stopping by. Typically they are all season, you just have to know where they reside in the cooler months. They are generally concentrated in small areas inside the harbour or middle harbour. There is definitely more of them in the warmer months and start up as the waters get warmer. Look at water temps online for an indication. People think because its cold outside there is no more kingfish, however the water stays warm a little while longer after the change of seasons. Its a challenging place to land your first kingfish, but during summer you should have smaller ones with the bigger ones in the mix so you can practice :)
@@FishingwithMarkiMark thank you so much for the detail. I'll check the temps and go. Also i'll keep try a lot every each area there. 🙌🙌 have a great day bro!
How deep did you set your float?Also,how heavy should my rod be to safely land Kingfish,salmon, Mac tuna and bonito?
When the sun is at its lowest i tend to go shallower only 2-3m then as the sun goes higher the fish go deeper so I adjust my float to 5-6m depth for this location. For Kings PE5-6 at this location so you can lift them up. For bonito and others, dont have to go to heavy, can catch them on bream gear or PE2 will be ideal.
@@FishingwithMarkiMark what if I don’t have to lift them up?Will a Daiwa TD black slugger 6-12kg do the job?
Hey bro, i found your spot and i caught a couple of monsters. Thx
SERVE FUZE what baits do u use for kingfish
Epic session boss!!! your last video was almost a month ago....great video...post up more soon!!
Thank you for the kind words mate, glad you enjoyed it! I'll do my bets bud, I try to do a really nice edit and it takes some time. Quality over quantity. Plus family & work commitments aha I'm on minimal sleep daily :(
@@FishingwithMarkiMark gotcha mate...my videos are shit quality and shit edits and it still takes a lot of time LOL...i'll keep an eye out for your next vid...
Thanks mate, don't be so hard on yourself mate! We are always learning & improving! :) Thanks for the support.
top stuff. just curious..do you use berley?
Thank you mate, to be honest not really. Sometimes I'll throw in a handful of cubed pillies! :)
@@FishingwithMarkiMark cheers dude. i went to la paruse the other day. didn't catch anything but i reckon there would be kings there. its deep off the rocks
can you still get into the gates at the piers .i thought they locked it for no fishing.please tell me.
Some are under construction and some aren't. Just check whats open and less people :)
@@FishingwithMarkiMark thank you
No mask this session mate? Love this spot too. Usually go here after work. Awesome session mate 👊🏼👊🏼
David Pham thanks for the kind words man! It has its days like you know :) nah not this one still slightly in cognito just the back and side of my head aha! Tight lines mate!
How did you get that shrimp？
Tsubasa .K I get them from a buddy of mine mate! However you can go pawning and catch some as well :)
yasssss. nice work mate!
Did you use circle hooks?If so what brand and size?
I think I used Circle BKK's size 2/0 or 3/0 from memory.
What pound do you guys use for kingies
Fishing With Paul Mate at this specific location anything between 25lb to 50lb depending on how fussy they are and water clarity etc :)
Thanks 👍
I was also wondering what time is best to go? Or what is the best tide to go?
Mornings, Arvo's however, really depends on your target species my dude :) !
Nice video champ tell me how u land one up that high when u get a good size like 80
Hey mate appreciate the kind words! The biggest I’ve lifted from this location was 85cm! Check out my IG for a photo of that monster. I have it on my go pro but turned off my go pro mid fight, so I got the start of the fight and landing! I’ll probably just release that as is! That was on 40lb braid / 40lb leader on complete low tide so the lift was hard! Best tips man, get yourself a longer rod for this location like 8-10 foot so it doesn’t pull the fish too close to the pylons when pumping and winding and the rod strength around pe 3-5 and you’ll be able to lift around 90ish. If you do get that 1 meter you have to get it on surface walk it over to the steps that go into the water and get anyone to go down and grab it! Or sometimes you get lucky and someone brings a massive expandable net :) hope that helps!
where to get live prawns pls? i know the entrance but seems too too far away!! thx!
weng waacy I get them from a buddy of mine mate!
what location is this mate/ I got a 10000SW Saragosa with 50lb braid which I want to try my luck with
Ahh nice mate give it a go, just in Sydney Harbour!
Fishin' with Marki Mark specifics!😁😁
This is from one of my other videos mate - Hi all, Just wanted to make a quick announcement as I have been receiving tons of messages about fishing locations. Please don't think I am being a douche or secretive about locations. I've started UA-cam to help out as much as possible and share my experiences, so that we can all benefit. I just don't think publicly posting locations would be the right thing for me to do, as the the ramifications of doing so would make it un-enjoyable for all persons. I use Google Maps in Satellite mode to find wharf's and locations and give it a go a number of times to see how it produce's & repeat the process. Thanks for your understanding & Tight-lines!
This was filmed on a weekend and no one fished here at all. Since posting these videos & keeping the location anonymous on public forums the location has still turned non-fishable on weekends / weekdays, literally shoulder to shoulder!
Fishin' with Marki Mark yeah alright fair enough. I see what you’re doing. Keep it up👌🏽👌🏽
Hey mate why do you open bail arm when you got a fish on?
Good question mate! Kingfish head to structure to try and bust you off when they know they have been hooked. This one went into structure being the pylons filled with barnacles underneath the pier multiple times. If you have tension in your line, you'll most certainly loose the fish, unless you manage to turn him out. Also depending on the fish, a lot of the time the fish will swim out if it doesn't feel tension and you can have another go at landing it! Hope that helps and thanks for watching! :)
Cheers mate that’s good advice. Wish I would have done that a few weeks ago in the same spot when I was hooked onto a monster. Busted me off after a short fight but my god it was heavy!
@@catco01 Ahhh that sux mate, it happens to the best of us mate you'll get him next time :)
Hey mate where do you get your live prawns from?!? Cheers
Hey mate we catch them in summer months as they can be expensive to buy, but there is a tackle store in the west that stock them, forgot the name however. I think someone mentioned the store in the comments from before. Cheers.
Hi Can You Explain How You Rig The Live Prawns
Hi mate, I hook them up unweighted on a size 3/0 Octopus or Circle hook. I've explained it in this videos & my other videos mate so best to have a look, hope that helps & goodluck :)
Right opposite where you are fishing there is a wharf where I fished early this morning. I was bringing in a undersized snapper when "bang" something hit that snapper hard. Believe it or not I hooked a John Dory. This is the second time I've caught a Dory in the harbour. Unheard of. John Dory in Sydney Harbour. I always thought they were a deep ocean fish
Thats amazing my man, my goal is to get one land based thats for sure. Some of my buddies have gotten them inside the harbour too. Just need to wait when the water is cold enough. :) Cheers.
How deep was your float set ?
About 4-5 meters mate :)
Great fishing dude where's this location you fishing at
Appreciate the kind words mate, Sydney Harbour!
Fishin' with Marki Mark where abouts in Sydney harbour
@@BaileyLeighSaikali walsh bay peir 8
What other baits do you recommend for kingfish?
Ohh mate so many to list! Squid, Cuttlefish, Herring, Yakkas, Garfish, Slimeys, Live Prawns, Pillchards etc :)
Where can I get the love prawn? I live in Chatswood.
how do you get liv prans
Couple of tackle stores in sydney supply them. I haven't used them in a while now, but call up and ask around :) if not can catch them in the right season.
Is it true that the fish caught there are unsafe to eat?
Hey mate, typically it is not advised to eat fish from west of the harbour bridge. Personally I wouldn't eat anything non pelagic inside the harbour. Here is the Governments advice on consumption levels for the harbour: www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fishing/recreational/fishing-skills/fishing-in-sydney-harbour
New to your channel mate ,loving the content
Thanks for the kind words mate & really appreciate your support :) tight lines!
Is this peir 2?
Yup
I'm looking for fresh shrimp. Where did you buy it from?
Not sure mate, we catch our own. Prawning at nights.
How muck kg is your drag on
Hey mate, the Saragosa 6K has 10kg drag, I was probably using about 7-8kg drag :) Hope that helps
how deep was the water there ?
Average between tides mate about 15-20m If I remember correctly from the boat 👍
@@FishingwithMarkiMark Thank you, was thinking about hitting up this spot this weekend , what do u think the most common species are at that spot ?
Roy Eskinazi Honestly a bit of everything, every species they Sydney fishing has to offer during their seasons! However I don’t think you can fish here in a weekend unless you camp out from Friday evening to get a spot. It is super packed now!
@@FishingwithMarkiMark when u say i cant do u mean because its very packed or im not aloud to ahahah
Roy Eskinazi Just super packed mate, I can’t even fish there recently unless you camp out for a long time. Be prepared to go there Friday night to fish there Saturday morning :(
Yeh the boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yewwwwwwwwwwwww. EBS is here! :D we need to slay again asap.. the withdrawals are real aha!
Where is that
Finger wharfs in Sydney Harbour!
Killin it bro
Thanks for the support as always my dude! Yewww..
Where is this spot at
Sydney Harbour mate!
@@FishingwithMarkiMark Think he was after a more specific response lol..
we have been to p9 so many times and caught nothing
Ahhh its been a hit and a miss mate, a couple of us were the first to fish here as you can see in the videos literally no one there. But just depends on the season mate and it has been getting a lot of pressure by anglers unfortunately. Good luck.
Yo where do u get the live prawns from pls tell me
Fatima Nayef I go prawning when they are in season mate.
@@FishingwithMarkiMark oh ok but do bait shops have them i mean they have yabbies but idk
Wheres this spot? Nice vid man!
Thanks for the kind words mate, It's in Sydney Harbour!
What size hook do you use? Thanks
Hi mate, for the rod I'm holding in my hand I use a 3/0 Octopus Hook as I like to hook-set the fish & for the rod I leave on the ground I use a 3/0 - 4/0 Circle hook. Hope that helps mate :)
Nice videos bro
Thank you mate, tight lines!
Hey mate where is that wharf at
Can i fishing with you when i visit Australia guys?
We're are you fishing
Sydney Harbour mate.
Cheers
Are you in Sydney
Yes mate :)
Get a flying gaff
Hey mate will a 6-12kg rod be good for kingfish?
If they play nice & you steer them away from structure. Its all very situational mate :) tight structure you may struggle.
