Black tip kingfish by JP Bart

 My BEAST of a Black Tip Kingfish + One.

It was Monday avie I had motivated Myself to go and fish My stretch I enjoy so much I had some New lures had to put to the test for HANTA… Rods and Lures which I am a Pro staff Member for them on the East Coast and HANTA is situated in the USA…!! Well I left home for Umdloti Beach  it was around 15: 30pm when I arrived and touched down onto the beach sand.I had My ASSASSIN 11ft AMIA KOB HEAVY ROD fitted with My Sustain 5000 with 30lb Braid and I put on My New Lure from HANTA The SNECON 130S Surface Lure 27g I was rigged and ready to target the Holy Grail of fish My favourite the KINGFISH.
I started My walk along My stretch the conditions were pearl the water was warm and blue the tide was going out and a slight SW was blowing what a epic avie to tackle a Monster of a fish.I unleashed the New SNECON Lure set My drag and started My Quest  for a Beast hopefully I stared getting closer to where I knew where My arch enemy the Kingfish hung around calling on the as I normally do I was hoping one or two would hear Me here kingie,kingie I would call obviously I was by Myself otherwise people would be a little worried about Me Ha hahaha….!! My aim on fishing My stretch was to see how active it became as the Sun was setting and as well on the tides too that day the tide was out going and low was at 18:37pm that evening.I had planned to do the same the following week on the pushing in tide, but unfortunately We had that Cyclone from Mozambique hitting us which would throw the sea upside down for a while.
