Cheers guys
Wasnt much of a holiday as I was the chauffer for the week up to my sister's wedding. Nearly all of our family turned up. That was my quick session yesterday for about 1hr or so. That was the only squid caught.
Went out again today in the arvo but got blown out and into the river. Cleaned up today with over a dozen between 2 of us and 2 more nearly the same size. Pics to come soon.
The squid king, well done Chinster.....a cracking PB mate.
Back to work for you, the boats all sorted with the upgrades so now its time for me to go back to my usual fishing pattern. This working for a living isnt whats its cracked up to be LOL !!!

Long time
Been a long time seeing the patent Honsu shot. Great Squid man. It seems like the squid is also posing by tightening its flaps and tentacles.
