hey guys,
went to a new spot on saturday, near the beumaris yacht sqaudron. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' /> a Great spot! the water was clean, there was plenty of reed and structure but there were no decent fish! I was out there with two mates for about 3 hours and i only saw 2 spearable bream and a couple of garfish. i did however see lots of smaller fish, leather jacket, etc. and i also saw at least 100 small squid! there were about 5 groups of maybe 20 squid. They are amazing to watch in the water! when a group of small squid swam past a school of baitfish, their tentacles would shoot out and grab one of the litle fish and pull it towards themselves. These squid were about 5-10cm long and they were southern calamari im Fairly sure. i did see one bigger one about 30cm but left it be. we went home fishless yet again, but we had a good time anyways. Oh and would anyone be able to tell me what the fish are that are around these areas that are stripey, im not sure what they are i thought they may be juvenile luderick as they are built like luderick, but their stripes are much thicker and darker. what are they and can i spear them?
thanks guys,
