Yellowtail Kingfish are widely distributed throughout the warm temperate waters of the Southern hemisphere, also known as Kingi or Yellowtail. In the wild they can reach 1.7 m in length and weigh 56 kg. They are rapacious carnivores, feeding mainly on small pelagic fish such as trevally, piper and garfish. Larger size Streamer/Baitfish flies are recommended on saltwater hooks and at least a 9 wgt rod to catch these powerful fish.
