b'In areas that have a lot of kelp, Feature Hooked up on a decent fishI like to work my lure along the that was found in the channelbottom all the way back to the between the two rocks in the background. boat instead of just the area close to the rocks. Most of the time you will get hit after you cast close to the rocks but when the fishing is hard, I work the ground between the boat and the shore and have picked up some nice fish doing this.Kahawai, trevally, kingfish and reef species like pig fish and John dory will also turn up when fishing the surge zone along the rocks.WHEN TO FISH? The change of light is the prime time to target the wash. Predators will be hunting the edges looking for unsuspecting prey and they are more concealed when it is still partially dark. Breezy days are good as mentioned - sometimes it is in the later afternoon that the wind has picked up and created extra swell to push onto the rocks.Fishing the east coast when the sun is on your face means there arent shadows cast on the rocks/water in front of you. The fish will often move into deeper water as the sun gets up higher. Bright lures are good and then when the sun is brighter changing to a natural colour may be the way to go. Overcast days mean the fish may stay in close for longer periods of time."In many places, a northerly or southerly breeze is great. An offshore wind is also safer however with some swell to stir up the fish is an advantage - when there is some wave action there is more whitewash."24FISHING IN GODZONE MAGAZINE'
