My father-in-law has fished Lion's Gate with an even older friend a few times and likes the area. I would like to get into a King (one of my dreams). I rarely get up to visit him so I would like to plan a trip to Noosa Heads area with him.
It has been reccomended in posts to fish between Fairy Pools and the Hell's Gate:
When fishing from the rocks - how far off the water are you generally?
How easy is it to get large fish somewhere to get them gaffed / landed?
How long a gaff is required?
How often are Kings caught and what would be the average size?
What pound line do you suggest for Kings, pelagics here?
What other pelagics are common?
What length / line rating / type of rod do you suggest?
Do you reccomend to use braid here?
Does the tide impact the fishing off this area - if so which is best or is it more a matter of light Sunrise / sunset?
What other fish species and where particularly on the Heads can they be caught:
Thank you very much
