Green eyes again

[jenno64]

Shot out for a 90 minute session on the squid again in Botany Bay. Had the wet weather gear on as the drizzle was steady all day. Slow start but first one came on and I threw my other lure out behind the hook up to snare the mate. Same deal a half hour later with the same tactics snaring a double. 

Spotted  a turtle and plenty of cormorants feeding on small fish to follow. 

For the first time I’m freezing strip baits for jewies and keeping a few feeds!

Good work again there Rob, bait and a feed.

Nicely done again. Always a hard decision with squid - food or fish bait 🤔.
Did you manage to sort out the electronics?

Thanks Dave, it took me a good hour to clean and prepare them, nice feed tonight!

I’ve also stripped the biggest hood into baits, freezing about 5 in each bag. I’ll try them next week up the Georges👌

Best bait is your own! I vac seal them and straight in the freezer. Fresh for a month.

Jewies will love those!

Some nice squid there from a short session well done. Rainy weather seems to go well for chasing squid, I recall a day on the Bay the Arrows were so aggressive as soon as a jig hit the water it got hit on the surface in pretty deep water.

Top haul.

Well done.

Thanks, I do seem to do better on overcast days, I used to encounter the arrows in Yarra Bay a lot and in numbers too!
