Am heading out to Mayor on Monday (nice little break in the weather looking likely) to chase some top water Kings! have heard it has been going well of late so have fingers and toes crossed! Have caught a couple top water kings and think it is just the bees knees as far as fishing goes! Will report back next week after the trip - with hopefully some photos attached!

Good luck, would be keen to hear the report, what gear you using?
A king on the bricks is worth 5 in a boat.

Was also looking at going on Monday but looks like the weather is closing in quick and its not as nice as first predicted for Monday
 
Good luck if you do go but be aware after a good 30 knots the day before it wont be that flat out there 
People say if fishing was easy then it would be called catching, I say these people who say that obviously had a bad day's fishing.

Just a quick report fullas but we managed to land nine kings with the biggest going an est 30kgs. This was on a little KY livey however the top water came on late in the afternoon and a couple fish of 25kgs and 21kgs were brought to the boat with the 25kg released but unfortunately the second had to be kept as it enhaled the carpenter half way down its throat!! A couple other nice fish were lost too.  Will get a couple pics when we get them from Mark at Extreme Sports Fishing. A good day and nothing beats the top water action!! Cheers

Hi Karl
There's a sample of some of the pics from your trip up on here.
 
The big fella was caught on a tiny KY, also was on the new jig star ninja rod with an accurate reel.
