Basil D Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hi All went with my wife Mrs Groper and Pongrass chris, With the Easter fast we dont eat meat so Calamari and fish look out. We got out and fished for a while for my wife to catch some pb's and she managed a 60cm Bonnie, A 55sm Rat Kingie, A 50cm Tailor and she also managed 4 squid, not bad for a beginner. The misses was stoked Then we headed of for some squid and got 18 in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formosan Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Holy smoke.. That's a lotta squid. Well done. What time did the squid came on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil D Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Believe it or not I have got them midday and Early morning, this time it was afternoon as we were after a feed of fish as well. I remember last year me and chris got 27 of them. Biggest haul was 36 squid between three of us. Edited March 25, 2013 by Groper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sphoukari Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 you were at the Bommie again I thought that was you, how was your catch you usually brain the squid there, bag limit each time. I see wallys warf is firing on squid again, it was packed when I got back Not wrong Wallys Warf is firing at night, dad has been bringing a few arrows back and a occasional green eye, but too busy at work lately to get out with the boat so i have been taking it. Sacrificed a couple squid at Marley and did a flathead run but only got 5 which was enough for a feed, if it wasn't for the leather jackets i would of got more. I heard a rummer that the locals are putting in a partition to council to get Wally's closed, if that's true it would be a shame for many boaties that use that wharf.

Yes it would be a huge shame if wallys is closed as it Brings out the Best arrow squid in Sydney and consistently , I remember fishing with the boys and every one was bagging out at that wharf, I suppose the noise and garbage people leave Behind would get the locals fired up.

Scratchie Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Welcome mrs groper! One piece of advise I will give you is....... You need to remember that fishing with mr groper should be FUN. It is not fun when your PB's beat his. This is why mrs scratchie is no longer allowed to come fishing! It was no longer fun seeing her out fish me and my mates! But with all that been said, you go girl!!! Look forward to reading your posts and very little posts from mr groper!!! Lol Cheers scratchie!!!

Keflapod Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Well done one and all. That's a lot of squid - I'm very jealous again. Anastasia, welcome to the forum. If you think your other half can talk silly and tell the odd story, you should read the reports here. There is a goose on this site called Keflapod who waffles on about nothing at all - well OK that would be me ! Well done on all those PB's - and you will soon take away all those records Basil holds on this site and is so proud of. Now that you know how to get inked, just point the business end of the squid to the boys and watch them duck for cover ! Basil, Won't be long now - you will not have much time to fish. You will be busy netting her fish and ducking the flying squid ink... Good on you for getting the new engine and giving her the confidence to step on board. Chris, I believe you are allowed two gropers per person per day - so it seems you got your bag limit that day. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
