1900 Sydney Sportsman 5 Dec. 7/7 Tie a piece of white calico to the hook of a schnapper line, and the ‘kingie’ will snap at sight of it.

1920 Quick March 10 Feb. 38/2 To fish there requires more than one rod and a few hundred fathoms of spare line if you want to haul in the biggest old ‘kingeys’ of them all.

1970 I. Gall Fishing for Fun of It 16 The kingie probably headed for New Zealand or at least Norfolk Island, for we never, at any stage, saw that rod and reel again.

2012 Daily Tel. (Austral.) (Nexis) 28 Dec. (Features section) 28 Filleting a decent kingie can be tricky. Instead it can be easier to cut them into a series of steaks or cutlets.
