FCL Labo CSPS180 ( sinking Lure) 

It seems that a lot of people believe that sinking lures don't catch Kingfish.
But they do!!!! LOL 
These lures dip down but can still be seen from the surface so you still see the hit, they go only a little lower than floating lures but don't break the surface as much as a Gamma on the pause.
Don't think that lures like Baby Runbohs, Orion Bigfoots and FCL Labo CSPS won't catch Kingys. 
Infact this sinking lure got more attention from the Kingys than the Hammerhead Cherry Pai's but the Carpenter Gamma still got smashed the most!!!!

Nice one Andrew..

Duncan from Fishead said a lot of the boys rock fishing in Australia for Kingfish have had a lot of success casting poppers from the rocks... especially the Jai poppers.

Damn I had a Craftbait GT3 in my bag that day we were out, but never had a cast withCry

Cheers Andre had a awesome day out with Mark, BTW those Burning Heart Falcons of yours look mean as...... i think i need someBig smile
