Cheers JD. See what happens with weather as the boat is limited with the crack. Got those kings where i was fishing that day when u an your mate come over 👍
Ya Gotta love that Sound, the reel screaming in anticipation The smile on your face Lowy, Ear to Ear Kingy excitement plus some You were more pumped over them than your love of Jewies That was a Top Session Cheers ( Old mate was a bit rude sitting in your pocket, Anyway )
Aside from that shark i hooked not long ago nothing pulls line like they were i was definitely pumped 😂 definitely alot more exciting than jewys maybe cause of the visual hookups an amount of them 🤷♂️ an yer 1 guy was pretty close in the end out of desperation to hook up 😂 he still didnt but an then he went elsewhere.
🤣 dont worry mate u wont be the only person trying to work that out. An best session iv had in a while so was nice to get amongst them an get some decent fish. 5 legal kings in a few hours id take that any day 🙌 glad u enjoyed the video.
Bloody hell Andrew well done what great fish and the fight is awesome. You know your fishing and we are lucky to get to see how it's done. Thank you I fixed my outboard today so all have to do is find somewhere to stay and have some good weather and hopefully before or after the full moon I get over there. I hear the full moon puts them off not sure if that's true
I think the full moon can be boom or bust Reg. I make sure im on the water before 1st light as that in my opinion is the best time along with the first few hours of light. At least your boats sorted 🙌
It kept me busy Steve thats for sure, from no bites to a frenzy 🤣 i cant remember exactly how deep but most likely 20-30ft id say. Thats the depth i like fishing vibes an thats what i was doing out there until the kings showed up. An i was using 16lb line an leader mate 👍
@@Lowysfishing do you keep any of the fish you catch? It is good when you explain and show the lures and set up your using. Very interesting. #jackall should be sponsoring you bro if they are not already, cause your smashing it with their lures.
@@stevesarginson6020 its rare when i do keep anything but it does happen once in a blue moon. An i dont have sponsors mate but definitely i do use alot of jackall stuff cause it works so good. Im happy to pay a bit more for lures line leader all that stuff that can give me any extra advantage to get quality fish. Iv never understood people who spend 60k on a boat only to use $50 combos or the cheapest lures possible 🤷♂️
@@stevesarginson6020 i use good fluorocarbon leader an good braid. U can feel more cast further when using a decent braided main line an having more abrasion resistance in the leader an better knot strenght is always a positive.
I don’t spose you wanna tell a novice a few rough locations to head to so me and the young fella can stop going and coming home without a single catch lol
Hey mate, depending on wind cause these spots will b blow outs if its over 20kph. Theres plenty of bream an flattys down mannering park way on the cockle beds in 12-20ft of water. West of pulbah also has good fish at times but been quiet of late. Down around bolton point also has good cockle beds in the bay between there an toronto an wangi point has been fishing fairly good aswell. Hopefully that helps mate 👍
@Lowysfishing hey Andrew hope you got the boat sorted. I've officially got to the lake and hate to say not a thing for the whole day. Tried casting your vibes and nothing. Found heaps of bait just nothing feeding on them..
@@regkershaw hey Reg, boat goes in for repair on the 11th so not too long away. An the lake can definitely be a place of hit an miss. If your around the bait at least your chances should b better. Early morning or late afternoon will b your best shot with this moon getting bigger.
@@Lowysfishing good to no it's not long till your boat is fixed. I think I've come at the wrong time. I was thinking weather I should try the river but I don't know nothing about it either... I might just have to keep to the waters I fish back at home
@@regkershaw rivers fishing well at the moment stacks of small jewys about if u fish around the rockwalls in 20-30 ft. In saying that the lake could fire tomorrow its just 1 of those places 🤷♂️
I usually run 15lb leader on my spin gear and have 20lb daiwa j thread on my baitcaster as leader. Also im running 20lb braid on the baitcaster but only 10lb braid on spin.
@@Lowysfishing my bait caster shimano 200hg curado with a 6 6 rod 10-17lb cast weight 8-28g what would u recommend line and leader for Lake Macquarie/ Swansea area
@@Willsalmon96 id run 15lb braid an 15-20lb leader depends what your chasing an whats around. I step up to 20lb leader using swimbaits for big flathead or throwing surface for lake kings and big tailor. I wouldnt use 20lb under the bridge but 🤣 get busted too easy.
@@Lowysfishing yeah new to area mainly fish rivers out west so not sure am definitely not catching nice fish like these ones haha 😝 and u recommend power pro braid and daiwa j thread ? Thanks heaps mate legend
Hey Andrew, thats a mad session alright. Looks like more fun than jewfish😲Had it to yourself for a while until "ol mate" showed up. Was that the same ol mate that I think it was?
Yer Pete was definitely fun geez they pull some line. No it wasnt him just some other guy, had it to myself then a few others turned up but they never got any.
Hey Wil. It was a jackall mudsucker 110 i had randomly in the tackle box 🤣 came in handy i tried a few lures before i put that on an no luck even in the middle of the feeding pack.
@@RonaldMcCoolguy a big kingy will give u some trouble on 20lb at the bridge. If i fished there id run 40-50 braid. They dont have far to swim to bust u off thats the problem. Inside the lake theres not much around so its easy enough on 15lb.
Probably the best fishing video I’ve seen in a while! Well done mate - hopefully see ya around the lake!
Thanks alot Seb, that video was fun at least lots of action in a few hours. See you out there 👍
Epic video they fight amazing sure I’ll see you out this weekend 🤙🏼
Cheers JD. See what happens with weather as the boat is limited with the crack. Got those kings where i was fishing that day when u an your mate come over 👍
@@Lowysfishing yeah thought so I went there that day you had drama with your boat
@@fishingwithjd3693 they were moving around alot thats the problem an soon as other boat start coming over there gone.
Ya Gotta love that Sound, the reel screaming in anticipation
The smile on your face Lowy, Ear to Ear
Kingy excitement plus some
You were more pumped over them than your love of Jewies
That was a Top Session
Cheers

Awesome session mate, great viewing! I'm still trying to work out what part of the lake this was.
🤣 dont worry mate u wont be the only person trying to work that out. An best session iv had in a while so was nice to get amongst them an get some decent fish. 5 legal kings in a few hours id take that any day 🙌 glad u enjoyed the video.
jeez you attracted a lot of friends pretty quickly
Thats the lake but mate u gotta expect it. Anytime your on fish an ppl see your surrounded pretty quick.
Great video mate excellent footage ! well done !
Appreciate it Paul it was a good session in the end 👍
Bloody hell Andrew well done what great fish and the fight is awesome.

Good day fishing Andrew. I hear kingies are good eating. Says drooling father in law. Lol.
Yer Steve bout time i caught something decent. An i wouldnt know what they taste like iv never eaten 1. Yet 😂
A Bent rod, attracts seagulls
That is absolutely hectic mate. Great to watch. How deep was you fishing. What lb line and leader do you usually run to catch Jew fish and kingys.

Recently got a baitcaster with around 12pound braid what leader line u recommend for this area legend

What's the topwater lure your using please mate. I don't own many but I got a box ready to start a collection. I have started with 2 70mm sugar pens
Thats a 110mm jackall mudsucker mate.
@@Lowysfishing do they not make it anymore as I can't find it in their repertoire of lures
@@ajlongworth69 not sure mate. Iv only ever had just 1 of them an luckily havent lost it yet.
@Lowysfishing wow that's one lucky lure, I'd be framing it and putting it on the wall with the 'The One That Hasn't Gotten Away' written below lol
@@ajlongworth69 🤣🤣 it fishes til its taken mate. No lures of mine are ever safe no matter what theve caught.
Mate what a video 😅
It was such a good day 🙌
Good stuff Lowy. They look to be 75 cm +
Thanks Jack. Yer iv never really caught many kings in the lake let alone legals so to get 5 good ones i was frothing 🤣
What was that too water that you caught that king on?
Hey Wil. It was a jackall mudsucker 110 i had randomly in the tackle box 🤣 came in handy i tried a few lures before i put that on an no luck even in the middle of the feeding pack.
Looks like good fun 👊
Was unreal dave right place right time.
@@Lowysfishing Screaming reels you don’t see many of them in the Hunter River 😂😂
@@aussfish9995 nope 😂
U still have instagram?
Where abouts in lake Macquarie did you catch that kingfish
Down Toronto way mate.
@Lowysfishing thanks I live in morriset so it's now that far away do you know any good kayak fishing spots in morriset way in lake Macquarie
@@andrewmickelson4466 i used to catch alot of fish out the front of mannering park down that way. Not to far to paddle either 👍
Would a 5000 4-8kg handle kingy's alright
In the lake mate no worries. That was a 4-10lb rod with 15lb leader on it i was using. No snags there where i was so was a good fun fight.
Yeah nice, was thinking around Swansea channel a bit out from the bridge on 20lb mono
@@RonaldMcCoolguy a big kingy will give u some trouble on 20lb at the bridge. If i fished there id run 40-50 braid. They dont have far to swim to bust u off thats the problem. Inside the lake theres not much around so its easy enough on 15lb.
