How do you stop the oil from

How do you stop the oil from getting sucked up into the vac packer? Sounds like a good idea to let them infuse with the squid, as well as vac packing bait :p

 Ok fair enough mate. Good

 Ok fair enough mate. Good luck on your trip.

And leemo who asked you? Catching rays then gaffing and releasing them is gay.

Squidding is what i like doing i'm not asking anyone's premision if i can or cant like something. It's just what i like, same with you and catching rays or any other species for that matter it's about you going fishing for enjoyment. Why shouldn't i go squidding because you don't see the need/fun?

Rays?! I would rather a) catch a squid or b) catch anything but a ray (especially of the rocks). I guess im part of that 5% huh?

Its more than 5%

Fri, 2011-10-07 10:45

Its more than 5% Brody.

Squid are tasty, heads are good bait and its good fun.

The only think I really like about people catching rays is that its fewer people targetting decent fish.

Yep agree with that lol.

Yep agree with that lol. Every thing from the squid can be used.

99.99% of people would rather catch something they can eat then a ray.

remember you were the one who took a shot at the author with an unnessesary comment backed by a bogas % figure based on anglers catching stingrays :)

rays vs squid

rays

Fri, 2011-10-07 14:36

I'll put my hand up and say that i love catching ray's the bigger the better,i'l much rather catch and release a 100kg plus ray than keep a fish for the table. I eat fish dont get me wrong , but i treat ray's as sport fish rather than a "pain in the arse" and will specifically go out and target them. The longer and harder the fight the better 3/4/5hrs - man vs beast.

 

sorry for the hijack danno - keep on catching those squid mate,ill have to get out there some time and collect some for myself.
