Squid Vicious

Went out for a fish of dampier on saturday. No joy in 25-30m with plackies so resorted to bait. Had a unusual pull on the line, like dead weight, and usually this is a bloody curly Moray.

But it wasnt!

It was a large squid.

Down went the jigs, and I didnt have the camera to shoot them on the water, and yes I like VB.

 

 

Big squid for dinner.

Went for a early morning fish Saturday, so went out Friday night and had a nice sleep in a sheltered bay. Got up at 5 and had a great day out there. Bloody big mother of a whale breached fully about 50m from the boat and scared the shiite out of me.

Certainly was surprised at the squid in that depth. Would have ever tried in that sort off water, but when the big fella came up, just dropped the jig down to see what would happen. Had a pre-rigged Haramitshu 2.5 so not even a big one. Caught 6 but these were the huge ones. No point in trying for more, was a huge feed, and one got sacrificed on the boat as mega fresh squid sashimi. Yum.

Also 2 trout but they werent worth posting as they were not massive. Got my first Robbo. Damn nice fish.
