Think kingfish only live offshore? Think again. In this episode, Lee Rayner heads way up a Victorian estuary system to chase big kings in seriously skinny water. Armed with a few live baits and one oversized squid, he slow trolls the baits along shallow edges and finds himself locked into a red-hot bite.
With fish pushing well past the metre mark — and some over 115cm — it’s an epic shallow-water session you’ll want to see. Lee breaks down how he rigs his baits, uses the downrigger, and positions the boat to tempt these green torpedoes into striking.
