Hi,
i went down to flinders pier for a few hours this morning.
i got there a bit too late as it was only an hour or so away from reaching low tide. ive never had much luck there on the last of the run out and low tide.
anyhoo,i caught my first cuttlefish on a size 4 brown yozuri jig!! crazy lookin things! flashing colours were so bright before it died.
the water was so clear that u could see alot of big squid and cuttle's hangin around but most too shy to fully attack!
my guess was they'd already had there feeding time alot earlier before dawn, when the water was deeper, or they were just in a shy mood.
does anyone here actually target cuttlefish by using particular rigs or jigs? i guess theyll go for most squid tackle tho'.
cheers!
