G'day all,
My Dad's friend and him used to go floundering (before his friend had a stroke) alot around the mouth of Koroit Ck. (before I was born <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> ), but judging by the photos, they had some great success, with 2 larger then a dinner plate. But thsi was the early 80's, so it could've changed.
But my question is, where can I get hand spears, floundering accessories and is there any other helpful tips you can give me? eg; what tides are best? :blink:
The only spear, that resembles a floundering spear was a 2 piece (screw on it was 5.6ft, screw off it was 4.5ft approx.) <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' /> It had 7 prongs (i think that is more then whats legal in Victoria :blink: could be wrong)
So, in conc;usion. What is the best time/s to go floundering? where can I get teh floundering accessories? Where can I buy a torch? What a good size battery to use? What can I store the battery in? If i happen to encounter flathead, squid (if possible <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> ) how should I go by spearing them? :geek
All help is appreciated.
Happy squidding,
