As the title says, Does anyone in wellington pursue this discipline?
I have spent a few hours here and there whilst soaking bait casting poppers and stickbaits to alleviate boredom.
I havent seen any follows from his Majesty, But have seen a couple of smaller dark shapes KY I presume.

Hey Jonty
 
Yeah I'd be well keen to hear. I been making a few and have several purchased (purely for research purposes you understand) but sadly most of my understanding has been from watching the japanese video's and learning that way.
Until Lotto comes in, I am gonna be restricted to the bricks but will be aiming to get out of the Harbour to find some deeper channels
Anyway, Good luck, Hope to hear some awesome stories

Anywhere you livebait you can stickbait with good result. From what ive seena good berley trail will help to get the foodchain started. Then when the bait turns up your chances of seeing a king will increase. Just cast down the berley trail itl happen with patience .
