the night started off very very slow regardless of the water conditions being next to perfect.... there was next to no wind at the harbour and water was almost crystal along the rock wall, sadly i couldnt say the same about the water clarity along the esplande, water conditions there were far from clear to say the very least.... alot of ppl were out from both squidnet as well as brisbane egi club! it was nice to bump into yous guyz again (joel, andy and allan).... its always good to watch yous in action and for me to steal afew techniques here and there hehe <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

anyways, it seemed that prime time 2nite was just before high tide peaked.... conditions were still perfect for squidding during this time and this was wen all my squid were caught... i managed 4 in roughly 30 mins.... which set a new PB for me 2nite for the most squid in one night.... ALSO, another PB was set for the biggest squid caught by myself... im not too sure how much it weighed, but dimension wise, it was definitely the biggest ive ever caught <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':ink' /> ..... after my 4th squid was caught 2nite, i was feeling pretty good and thought id smash my previous PB of 3 squid in one session.... BUT, conditions were quick to change, and within minutes, wind within the harbour picked up considerably, which resulted in the water surface becoming quite wavey making the squid hard to spot..... the squid that were spotted after that, seemed to be quite shy and unwilling to lunge at my jig.... mayb the motion of the ocean has alot to do with the squids hunting behaviour??? again, my orange yozuri jig seemed to work best for me 2nite....

soo, just to recap, 2nites total is 4... which brings my overall total for this season up to 10! YAY!
