Mornington squid hunt

An early start to the day today with a squid hunt. Was on the water just after 6 and it was a little lumpy. The wind was about 5 knots, which was enough for a quickish drift. The first 4 or 5 casts produced nothing and as I drifted out further I started getting them. This may be due to the water being very shallow as it was low tide and my usual productive spot was about a metre shallower than normal.

It was hard and fast and I had bagged out by 7.20, with a few good ones amongst them. I went home to show a couple of my sons who were clearly impressed with the capture!


They are in the freezer awaiting a secret silver over the Easter weekend where they will be re-introduced to the water at Corinella.
