yet another unsuccessful night for me =( however, i did get a chance to briefly catch up with paul aka "ru 12 mug" for afew more tips and tricks, thanx again paul!! i can feel squid number 2 coming on soon! lol
conditions were quite ideal for squidding 2nite as the water was relatively calm near the rockwalls making "sight squidding" a relatively easy task.... there were also quite afew memebers from the new egi site, and was told that afew of them managed to land afew, congradz to them =)
the only sort of action i got was 2 strong pulls from 2 different squid in a different location from the rockwalls... the first squid that lunged at the jig i actualy thought i had a snag, so i looked a distance away from where i was standing to see what it was and next thing you know a massive ink trail was left behind and the squid let go and the other encounter, the squid was quite literally at my feet... it took the jig, however from side on, and not from behind where the spikes are, needless to say, i wasnt goin to bag that one....
anyways, here is a pic of the mad scientist himself.... well done to paul for successfully landing afew squid 2nite, he was up to number 5 when i took this photo for him...
