VIDEO: Florida style Kingfish
Updated | By Andre Bloem

Live bait and light tackle make for both success and fun as a Florida angler shows us his stuff.
He liked what he saw of the weather and headed to Fort Lauderdale Beach to wet a line.
Brighton Beach on the Bluff here in Durban is a good spot for catching kingfish of a similar size.
Live bait is also the best bet with karanteen, blacktail and mullet all very useful options.
I have also caught a kingfish on stonebream, but was maybe a tad lucky that day.
The beach in our footage below seems quite sandy, while Brighton Beach has lots of rocks.
I suspect local anglers will need heavier tackle when targeting kingfish at many of the Bluff beaches.
Kingfish have cut many a line when hooked in rocky terrain.
