Hacking squid session

[REELCRAZY]

Launched in the hacking yesterday with squid being the main target for the session. Great conditions as we headed out, light winds, little to no swell.

At our spot each drift was fruitful and in a couple of hours we had our haul of squid. We moved off and found some bait, dropping light jigs on bream gear for lots of tailor. Trolled the cliffs with hard bodies for more tailor.

Pushed out a few km to a wreck which held bait,  but no predators about to hit our jigs. so dropped some tailor baits down in hopes of some flatties. All small with only two keepers. We sounded up a large school of bait while bottom bashing so dropped sabiki rigs and loaded up with full strings of slimeys.

With enough bait to fill the freezer and squid for days, we headed home. Another great session!

That's a great haul on the inkers mate. Any stand out in jig colour or size?

We fished 3.5 -4's and I had success with darker colours

Thanks mate, I have been using lighter natural colours and glow type for little result lately. I might go back to my old favourite dark red.

Nice catch mate, did you catch those squid outside the Hacking or inside as I tried squidding for about an hour and bit yesterday with no luck.
