  1. hi raiders

    with the long weekend coming up i thought id give something new a go, catching squid!! im thinking of going around la parrouse area.i dont really know what time of day or what is the best tides to catch them, and how big and what colour jigs to use as i have never really targeted squid. so any tips would be greatly appreciated!!

    cheers isofish

    When are you going isofish?

    I'll be around La Perouse area this weekend as well (probably Sunday). Having said that though, Im not a squid pro.. only ever caught 2! So would be good to share ideas if your there as well

  2. Good stuff Simmo!!! Youre getting better with every one of your reports! If youre heading out again next weekend, I'm interested in tagging along for the ride!

  3. The spit bridge is worth a try, has never failed me yet.

    Good luck

    Where abouts at the Spit bridge? North side, or south side where the boats are moored?

    I'm landbased.

    Nice squid mate!!

    when were you fishing

    I went at night, at about 8pm. Low tide, brightish moon though.

  4. G'day Raiders!

    (First fishing report.. please bear with me)

    I've often read that catching squid is a really enjoyable experience, read and tried to do exactly what Slinkymalinky wrote about squiding

    And more recently, inspired by a thread started by Penguin on Botany Celephods, I decided to get some squid jigs and drag a mate out, brave the cold, and head to the North side of the Harbour bridge.

    Both of us being new fishos, we had no idea what to expect!

    After 20 minutes of casting and retrieving without any takes, I must admit interest was waning.

    Just as we were about to give up, we managed 2 decent hookups.

    Did a salt and pepper on them.. oh happy times..

    Would love it if the experts out there could provide some other spots to squid from!

    Edit: Added pics, thanks monch.

  5. Nice squids!!!

    Can I ask a stupid question? How do you detach the squid from the jig once they are caught?

    I got the day off work tomorrow. Might give squid jigging a go. Only started fishing a few months ago and absolutely loving it!

  6. No luck for me and the little cousins... And the rest of the fishos around there!!

    I got there for the afternoon session but by then, there was heaps of bread, corn etc floating in the river. The whole afternoon I was there, no one caught anything.

    SO looks like the Parra carp out failed :(

    BUT... did score some free fishing line and a pair of gloves..

    Edit: Land based, what did u guys end up doing with the fish??!?!

    Edit: I'm now a bream... my 50th post! Woohoo!

  8. Dead set, mate. He either wanted your spot or hes just a grumpy old man who thinks he knows it all! Unfortunately, Ive seen some of those around as well...

    * No more than 4 rods or lines to be used or set by any one person at any one time. - Nope

    * No more than 3 hooks or 3 gangs of hooks attached per line (a gang of hooks should have no more than 5 hooks). - Nope

    * One line may have 6 single hooks with lure attached to be used by the method of hand jigging only. - Nope

    * No more than 3 treble hooks attached to a lure. - Nope

    * Jagging is illegal (hooking, or attempting to hook, fish other than through the mouth). - Possibly thinking that you were trying to jag a fish!
