Big Day on the Kingfish for the Broulee Boys

Adrian and his mates from Broulee NSW jumped on Provider this week for a full day charter as part of their week out on the Coromandel. These boys have just gone through the stress of having the Aussie bush fires on their back door step, and were enjoying some time out in New Zealand.

We loaded up the livie tank in a matter of minutes, the boys were fizzing, and the good vibe on the boat soon saw the fishing light up. Every spot we stopped at, we had good sized kingfish hitting livebaits, jigs and softbaits on the light gear too.

We started on the 32 out the back of Slipper which has been producing some really nice fish\

Then moved wider to the Aldies

The best fish of the day came slow trolling in around the islands, and came on a dead maccie. So often we get out best bites on dead maccies, don’t know what it is, the bait doesn’t get picked off, it just gets hammered by the big ones!
