Jumbo squid = dhuie

 A plan was hatched to go for a fish on Thursday night with my cousin behind the islands for snapper so on my lunch break went to woodies to catch some squid for bait it was pretty windy to the north east so I used the available wind to put my jig in a place I wouldn't normally put it and resulted in a 35 cm tube squid I managed only one more small one before I had to get back to work. Went out on the boat that evening and converted the squid into a 502mm and 640 dhuie was a good night on the water. Did the same thing on Friday only rays and sharks no snapper were encountered on either night

Looks like a grey nurse to me also, also known as a sand tiger shark and they are protected.

Cheers

The image has been removed, and i suggest perhaps this whole thread follow suit... I don't usually get involved with the dead 'what's this' posts, but a juvenille grey nurse on the grass? Really?!  Print out the rec fishing regs or save them on your phone and at least flick to the handful of totally protected species before taking something home you're unsure of.

 And i agree it was a grey nurse. He also said that he returned it back to the water, so no wrong doing done!

 

Let it go gents, let it go.
