adjustedpete Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Went out yesterday in the wind for my fix. launched from bayview and headed for the headland. On the way I found the birds working just off the basin. I got all excited and raced over to find I wasn't rigged for surface action out comes the knife and slashed the leader and sinker off my abu garcia and frantically tie on a slice. After getting the treble out of my thumb, i quickly tossed in and Im on. !0 casts for 8 tailor of 30 to 33cm Things are looking up. I had a good feed so I left them to it. I had fish so I thought I would try for a squid and headed to the headland but someone was already working it. I think it was a raider too. So I shot out to the front for a look but it was a bit rough and decided to go over to west head for a look. I grabbed a few yakkas and moved on to flint and steel for the bottom of the tide, which got me a donut The wind was picking up now so it was off home but for some reason I decided to stop at another squid spot which will remain nameless. I dropped a float out with a spike and a yakka under it thinking I will practice my squid jigging while I wait. 10 minutes later I get my first squid jigging. Im over the moon. I glanced up after getting it into the boat and I cant see my float, Damn its caught on the weed. Luckily I had lost a couple of squid last week so I didnt jag it out, I just pulled gently and it pulled back. Mmmm I get it to the boat and there it was, 40cm hood. I couldnt have asked for a better day, minus the treble in the thumb Off the water by 330pm,having salt and pepper squid at 530pm for dinner.
