Such a shame I went home without any squid. I packed a 2.5 and a 3.5 sized jigs, 21ft pole, handreel and some spare swivels and spare line and was dreaming about 3 consecutive days of hitting the bag limit; I had no intention of doing much 'normal fishing'.
I'd heard the harbour was full of 'good sized' squid all week, and given that the area is commercially fished for squid I was excited about nabbing a few huge ones amongst the dozen I was certain I'd be going home with.
No luck unfortunately, and worse still I had aunts and cousins looking forward to stuffing a couple, BBQing another 2-3 and deep frying the remainder... Maybe next time...

Never happier than on a quiet pier, on a cold, dark, wet night, with a bucket to sit on, pole in hand and a fully charged iPod.
