Simda Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Had a strange night fishing We went to clifton gardens with yakkas hoping for something big Put down a few live as well as some strips After about 5 minutes my sons breem rod bent and he caught a fair size tailor, Then we noticed heaps of squid around the boat They were small and skinny, different to the normal ones I see in the harbour We quickly put on a squid jig and caught one, before bringing it into the boat i could see 2 others trying to steel it, these were crazy aggressive I lost count but i think we landed about 20 in total, some were caught on our normal baits just lifting them into the boat or netting them at the side Will go out later today and try to turn some into kings but was a lot of fun last night and a then there were big fireworks last night that from 100 meters away my 9 year old son thought he was dreaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Sounds like your boy enjoyed himself, those squid you caught are probably arrow squid, they are usually thinner in the hood and have smaller flaps than southern calamari. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
