i prefer my seafood fresh (not from the freezer)
so i have no problem in stopping when i have enough for myself and family
peel is definately worth the trip at the moment
will keep you guys posted when i go again
p.s.
mojiko jigs were what they wanted (blue & green)
wouldn't touch yamys, didn't try the shrimphunters (didn't need to)

the weather gods weren't as kind at peel today
between the wind, rain and overcast conditions it was nearly impossible to see the squid
i had a case of the dropsies, went 2 from 7
mikeyb did much better with 6 (i think)
well, there's always next time
mickyb - thanks again for the jig

some times it pays to go out and ruff it and some times not.
1000 hours....I can relate to that as I've been fishing the bay for about 18 years now and come to think of it...not much has changed fish wise , just more idiots on the water.
it maybe why dazza calls his boat "the idiot magnet"....lol.

I've fished from the T line which is next door to the swains right up to chinaman which is north/east of whitsunday
Island , so at a rough guess thats about 200 miles of reefs loaded with fish or use to be lol
we use to stay out for 2-3 weeks at a time and just hop from reef to reef untill we filled the freezer.
what a life

try this
cut the tube open and lay out flat.
score the inside of the tube to form diamond shape cuts and not too big...you need the outer skin intact to help curl the portions.
cut into rectangles of about 70mm by 40mm.
then crumb or marinate..or add them to the seafood marinara as I do at the last minute.....wickked
it helps if you have a good supply of prawns and fish when it comes to cooking a good seafood marinara with a garlic and cream sauce...yum yum droooooolll.
