I got a squid jig for Christmas a few years back and had never used it.
Went out on a runabout (to Yoemans in Cowan Waters Sydney) to try it out tonight, in the first cast (literally in the first 2 minutes) i had pulled up a squid! About half an hour later i had another! Stayed for about another hour but had to go to the toilet so bad i had to go home.
Anyway, squidding rocks! It was heaps of fun. Although i have now learnt not to put the squid next to a big chunk of ice - the weight burst the ink sacks and i had lots of fun cleaning them.
Just a question. When i went out it was a super low tide. .007 i think which is like the lowest you get all year round. I was fishing about half an hour after low tide - the tide was coming in when i was fishing but really low still. What tide movements are good for squid??
I'm excited!
