How To Catch & Cook Yellow-tail Kingfish

Fishing from a ledge in NSW south coast. Targeting Longtails late in the season with no luck, we end up hooking a few Kings. We managed to see a school of 14kg + Kings that ended up killing our yakka and leaving. We camped this ledge for 3 nights and was a great trip. Any tips or suggestions for content, we would love to hear.
