09/01/11. First 90cm plus from "The Cornsake".

The Boys reckon the singlet looks gay .....even more so tucked into the wetsuit pants.....maybe they have a point???


It is a fair dinkum hoot landing a 10kg plus King at nearly 1.0m in length from a ski.There is much to consider and many obstacles to over come.They are hard enough just to find let alone entice.Once these fish get to over 90cm they are just so brutal and unforgiving. A hook up can often end in a bust off if you are not prepared.

We "Think BIG" on every outing and target these things with a massive passion that appears to give us consistent results.We do have a system and finally feel as though we have a rough idea on how these larger specimens feed and behave.

For me this fish is the pinnacle so far in my pursuit of the yellowtail kingfish.To land it on probably the most unstable purpose built fishing ski just added to the challenge and thrill.

It's all about keeping things simple and raw ...One ski,one paddle,one rod,one bait and one species.No bling, no electronics.Kayak fishing in its purest form.

Please enjoy this short clip of the fish I caught and the ski I hooked it from.
