Caught 25 kg kingfish on dropshot at Sodwana. Hard work but worth it.

One of two cob in short succession on dropshot, trick is to get it to the bottom. Cost me 4 jigheads.

The fish was caught in Qatar in Khor Al Udeid - the Inland sea between Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Awesome fishing spot

Unfortunately I took a very bad picture of this fish. Was 27.5kg.

Hey guys. When there are toothy species around like couta and barracuda, do you drop shot with steel/bite trace?

Going to Milibangalala soon and not sure if I should fish steel with all my outfits or only certain ones.

Protocol,depends where you fish at Milli.There are couta and barry's around but on some of the pinnacles there are serious amounts of Bludger and Fulvies and don't forget about all those lovely Kaakap.

Good luck getting them out in between the sharks and Potato Bass....

Thanks Rory. Mainly going to be fishing the point from the beach, as well as on nearby reefs off a kayak (no more than 1km out).

Pity,the amount of reef and fish out deep are amazing.I will probably go again this November again.So worth towing a boat up.

Well done.

Still on my bucket list........
