Any idea or from previous experiences are these two places good for kingi at the end of may? Booked a charter and not quite confident on what to expect.

We fished out at curvier last year middle of may with Tobez on the good ship sanity, me and the wife scored our PB snapper at 15.5lb and 14.3lb and wrestled with 20-30 hard fighting kingfish, best around 18kgs on both live baits and jigs. Was a most enjoyable day, hope you do well.
