Hi guys. I notice the last post was made half-way through last month. Let's get it going eh...

All caught on 1.8 egi-ohs









For some reason I'm still catching them during the rain too, and this is in shallow water (1 -10 foot)

Hey mate it's been a while. How's Real Estate comin' along for you?



25cm hood is great size, the biggest I seem to get at mine are just over 20cm hood.



Last night we got there and there was one swimming around in half a foot of water. He took a 1.5 yama within seconds. The cast after that I got a similar sized one and after that we got a few little ones. Left after an hour as I'm not a fan of freezing my nuts off.

went balmoral friday night and sunday night and managed some good size calamari, two big ones between 30-40 cm hood, and one around 25cm and a baby around 10cm on friday night.



Then one nice size one around 28cm on the hood on sunday night.



All off Balmoral =]

[cowancreekdave]

Holy crap. I need to get in on this Balmoral shiz. Those are beasts.

LOL Dave you are everywhere.

Nice squid to buddy i never asked before, Do you eat them or they go as livies since you packing a stradic 2500/3000 (looks like) could bring in a king or jew. with that.

[cowancreekdave]

Hi mate, I use the heads and guts for bait, the rest hits the frypan <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

It's a sustain 2500, seems to do the trick.

I went to jefferys st wharf last night, only managed one with the hood going about 10-12cm...pretty average



it was ######ing freezing though, my hands almost fell off so i definately wont be going out again until it warms up a little!
