Gdaayyy Dom,Your best bet would be out near Watts Reef towards the heads early in the morning ,plenty of burley and a no 8 long shank hook with a small split shot and a strip of pillie for bait would get you some yakkas for sure .As for the squid you could try a yozuri suid jig in the orange or blue colour or a squid jig with a whole pilchard or small yakka on it ,anywhere there is a reef or a weed bed in around 10 feet of water would be a good starting point .Watts Reef is inside the southern headland near the last channel marker /if you line your boat up at the channel marker and look to the south you will see 2 chimneys ,once there is a gap in between them motor slowly towards them and u can see the reef under the water it is quite shallow GOOD LUCK

Cheers STEWY
