found this offshore, cant see it to clear in the pic but looks like a tiger left its mark on it, bone is about 60cm long so was a big critter, cuttlefish i presume ???
I caught 2 off the new jetty beside the Pilot boat mooring just inside the Mooloolaba harbour but then got moved on by a security guard so I guess they are about. They seem to like the clean water on a run in tide and a strong light so the public jetty on the south side next to the ramp could be worth a go.
What kind of jigs are you guys using, and what size do you prefer???? Prawn style, fish style?? There are lotsa yo-zuri style squid jigs. Most of the guys I talk to use a size 3.0.
If you're interested in some great prices, check out my site, will have new jigs in May 27th.
new to boating and fishing, any good places around sunny coast for some squid and a method of catching them, use to catch them of a jetty at belmont but very keen to try here in qld
I have only been squid fishing once and was supprised by how fun it was. But the only thing that has really turned me off going again was the trouble i had 'attempting' to clean the buggers.
How do you guys clean them or how do you know when they are clean. I pulled the skin off them but started to go dark again.
Your advice will be much apprreciated as going to go again after a taylor trip this weekend.
I tried shorncliff jetty last night. I couldn,t get over the amount of people trying to catch squid there. I managed one failed hook up. I saw a few swimmimg around but they didn't seem interested.
Q- do you throw them out and retrieve them in or as I noticed many just dangled them from the jetty. But they didn't catch any.
you need to work a jig remo. if u see a squid chasing the jig stop, then slow retrieve if it isnt interested, the more u can tease the squid the better, they soon get agro enuff to attack them. best of luck

Know what you mean Remo. Did a little last night (from a boat) and had one hanging around about 2 metres from the boat in the light and just checking out the jig. I tried jigging, sitting still, up near the surface and then lower, still nothing. Then tried casting out again and retrieve again. That finally interested it. Attacked the lure but missed a positive hookup. Oh well.
After assessing my failure I realised I missed something that a senior member of this site said. Rub a pillie against it for scent. Maybe that could have made a difference? Have thought about using Garlic scent. May give that a go next time.
much to what many people believe i'v cought my best squid during the middle of the day
try drifting aroun some of the banks were the oyster leases r in the rainbow channell
