Squiding session
Ok before i start this i want everyone to know this is my first squiding attempt hahaha so was not the best but managed some results!!
Went down to woodmans point with a cheapy squid jig from the deli went for the green one figured thats what everyon on here uses, and baught some berly. So what i know about squid weedy bottom with sand patches so found some thing that i thought looked like that(forgot my polaroids). first hour caught nothing but there was no wind and beautiful so still enjoyed it. I tried ever retrieve i could think off fast wind, sloww twitching, fast twitching. Looked like a bit of a bannana for a while there hahahah
Then when the sun started going down bang i was( retrieve slow twitching) on my first squid ever and it was big one the tube was 38cm (not sure how this rates with you boys), the next half hour i caught 3 ore squid and one cuttle fish. Kept one more and threw the other two back (only me to feed tonight) plus was unsure how to clean the cuttle so let him go as well
So first squiding session a sucess i think im on the board and they taste great, got photo but will put it up when i get home

38cm is a decent squid. Top effort. Sunset and sunrise are best times, just as the sun isn't viewable. From boat, anytime of day.

we headed there yesterday
Hit mid arvo when the wind dropped out and smashed it. the water was so clear, we were actually sight fishing squid picking which ones to hit. amazing creatures when they line up there prey. They actually stalk it for a bit, circle around and then BAM, they are on!
felt a little unsporting when you can see your catch before you catch it, but hey, they still tasted pretty good tonight!

Unsporting? No way! Sight
Unsporting? No way! Sight fishing squid is way more fun that just hope and dangle in the depths.
