went down to the harbour this morning at first light to see if I could bag a few inkers.
holy crap...where do I start...well it was game on from wo to go.
plenty of squid and not too fusy about anything so I got stuck fair into them right from the word go.
with a light s/w wind of 5 knotts made it quite pleasant and cool I fished for 2 hours before the wind swung to the south and chopped things up a bit so then I kept going for another half hour and then pulled the pin.
I have a scoobies plastic container which would be about 15 litres in size with a screw on lid with a handle...thanks to my daughter..well I allmost filled the dam thing and I was thinking that I had beaten the record of 17 that was set the week before and when I got home and counted them out I was stoked to find that I had shattered that record by another 8...yep thats right I got 25 squid in 2 1/2 hours this morning and I'm tickled pink about it as this is when I stock up bait for the snapper and sweetlip for the years fishing.
so far this year is off to a flying start to the likes I have not seen before..sooooooo many squid...thanks god...lol..
ran into fisherdan down there but he didn't have the right jigs so he got zip but I made his day by giving him a pile of tubes to eat after I pulled the heads out for bait.
happy days in the bay atm <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />
see what tomorrow brings.
