Was it on the little Yamashita 1.8 again?

Yes Jazz,got some new colors to ,i see you ve been getting some!

got 2 of these arrows this afternoon, rushcutters bay low tide 9pm, got them 7-8pm orange daiwa 1.8

Handsome looking squid Bent, but that's not an arrow, definately Southern Calamari.

thanks Jazzman for telling me what it was is, much appreciated.

i Just came back from a squidding session in manly.

2 cuttle fish

4 calamari

5 arrows



all on orange 2.0 yamashita glow in the dark ones.



i tried pink, pink and orange, blue, none worked except the orange 2.0 yammie



sorry i don't have any pics, it was dark and my phone was playing up



i made a order today for bens magic jig, the daiwa fire. Ill let you know how i go when i use it in my areas.

After Finally getting out and targeting JewFish with my well stocked squid supply it was time to add a few Inkers back to the Squidly Bank.



Went out for an arvo session on the 14th Bloody windy but didnt stop a few Inkers landing in my bucket



I broke the tip of my sloppy rod my little Daiwa rod I used to love using for my squidding .But now I am using my Eggi rod all the time now and wouldn't go back to any other rod.











Arvo session 17th











Cheers Ben

My First Jewie's Caught on my Vacumed sealed Inkers



Landbased Caught these two











Then My First Two Jewies from my Kayak Did catch three but when I had the second one on my lap for a pic it did the self release trick <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' />





Excuse the hack job with the knife <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' />

Great fish mate! And great squid too! You really have worked out the secret to gettting squid in the bay.

bens back!!



Nice squids ben, they look nice to eat. You have a good selection of squid jigs.

Good to see the squids are giving you a great return on investment, those jewies look excellent.



You must know a very good spot for squid because you always catch them in quality and quantity.

Cheers Mate . Most of my squid these days are at a new spot I have been squiding over the last five months Great spot always come home with a few Inkers . There is allot of squid fisho's who hit the area but not all realise how good the area is . Its surprising with time in an area and a good pair of rock hopping boots how you can suss out an area .I must get back to the bay for a session

Yeah I stopped my squidly reports for a while I erased my photo bucket account as I had the username from a kayakfishing site I started a few years ago which I no longer run so I finally started a new account .Mate the jewies went down well . I dont know why they are called soapies in regards to taste and texture . <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rod:' /> They tasted great filleted skinned and all the bones out . <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/xyxthumbs.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' /> And yes I do know a good spot but also thats all I fish for these days . And most squiding sessions would be no less than five hours so when you put the time in it doesnt take long to work out a new area .I am still yet to catch one over 1kg .Something to look forward to



Cheers Ben

Couldnt help myself had to get out and try and catch a few more Inkers to bring my squid stock back up to where it was before I Caught the jewie bug. Got down to my spot around 230pm started of at my first spot with the Daiwa jig in Orange 3.5 I stayed at my spot for around 30min then moved on as I normaly get one with in the first 30min in that spot . I then tried three other spots with the bright jig without a touch . I finally got to one of my end spots and changed over to the Gold 3.5 within a few minutes I had three good size Green Eyes in the Bucket and one tiny one which I released latter in the arvo to live another day <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rod:' />

Let the little one go . Took him a while to get going then he slowly moved into some kelp and vanished









Final Tally Three on the Gold Three on Orange
