Plan a trip →Kingfish on Live Bait
inshoreYellowtail kingfish are extremely responsive to live baits, particularly slimy mackerel, yakkas and squid drifted over offshore reefs and pinnacles along the NSW and VIC coast. Live baiting is particularly effective when kingfish are finicky and not responding to jigs or lures, and regularly produces the largest fish of a session.
Kingfish Jigging
offshoreYellowtail kingfish are among Australia's premier sportfish, and vertical jigging over rocky reefs and seamounts along the south-east coast is one of the most effective and rewarding techniques. These powerful fish are notorious for diving into structure, demanding strong tackle and skilled anglers.
