Hi all. Just moved here in browns bay. I'm land based and seen a few kingfish and hooked up to a few but haven't landed. I don't see them as offten as I thought, do the fish Cruse the coast line much over here or are they deeper. I always burly up and cast a stick bait around. the other rod gets the odd baby snapper and live bait.. I see more fish out takapuna way than along browns bay area beachs.. any info would be great thanks. wouldn't mind a trevally spot to if any ones nos, cheers.

They are on all the ecb reefs just off the coast so im sure they will be anywhere there is a bit of depth and bait right on coast. We caught 2 this morning very close to Browns bay - one legal one not. Keep at it.
