The video says it all

The white jag sat better on the driftMy favorite jag had extra pins right where the squid were hittingLots of hits for no salt n pepper squid :woohoo:

"I know as I type this, others elsewhere will be saying how SH admin are zealots, and in PIRSA’s pockets etc, but the reality is far from that"Not me ale...."In this case, a scientist has asked ( thru the right avenues) if there is any chance members of the forum could help him with any info on a rare skate, nothing more.If he has worked alongside other groups, so be it, SH , is just another group ."No problem with the scientists or their case as its not them that would use feedback against us. I think the metro sharking issue upset enough members of this forum to justify exercising extreme caution with anything fgsv or WACRA are taking an interest in."The same tit for tat arguement your pushing could be used in regards to your constant "hard" questions aimed at PIRSA."Sometimes on behalf of others not confident or prepared to ask them themselves. So why shoot the messenger? Plenty of others who post on here are less diplomatic than myself."Hardly a target species for the average rec and has no commercial value!!"Agreed but unfortunately the status of this species gives rise to their agenda, it doesn't diminish it when advocating banning fishing in the port river.You raise ya hat to Kon but don't like my concerns on the issue. Fair enough I can cop that.

Choice bro.

That's why i went with the KG Killa from Ray & Anne's. Fuji guides and reel seat plus the longer butt. Love it, great rod.

Might try that on my missus. Soy sauce you say?

Cool Dish Watch this, Fresh Squid Dish It has a dead squid on top that “dances” when Soy Sauce is poured on it, activating it’s neurons (Odori don - The new dish where a squid comes "back to life" and dances on your plate.Diners in Japan looking for a moving experience over dinner can now order a squid that dances off their plate. A restaurant has created a dish, named Odori don - literally meaning dancing squid rice bowl - by adding soy sauce to a fresh squid. The high salt content in the sauce reacts with ions in cells of the squids' tentacles creating voltage differences, and making the squid move.To prepare the dish, chefs at Ikkatei Tabiji, in Hakodate, Japan, first remove the head of the squid before serving the body, with tentacles intact, over a bowl of sushi rice. Seasoned soy sauce is then poured over it. As the squid is served so fresh, when the sauce is added signals across nerve cell membranes are re-activated temporarily, making it 'come back to life’. The body is then removed and prepared by the chef to be served as a side accompaniment. The meal, which is proving popular with diners, costs around ¥2,000 or £15.30 per person. The dish is such a success that the restaurant have patented the name of the creation. Now other restaurants in the area have begun making their own versions of the Hakodate dish, under different names.

As you all know, my new target was snook... First day targeting them, I caught 2!!! We went at sunset and caught 2 squid straight away. After those 2 squid, the bite had gone down. But I started getting a few hits on the little sp so I persisted. I saw some snook rising from the deep and them BANG! I saw a snook hit the lure! I landed it just as it spat the lure on the jetty. Pew... that was lucky :ohmy: MY FIRST EVER SNOOK!!! Later on after the sun had set, I had one massive hit on the sp lure and this was a BIG FISH! It didn't take up much of a fight considering I had locked drag. I managed to land it on the jetty. I was so excited! I measured it and it was 64cm on the dot! WOW! I WAS SHOCKED... :woohoo: First day targeting my new species and sucess! This big snook had a scar on it's tail which I think might be from another snook or a shark? We ended the day with a nice feed.

Sad loss, he was a lovely man and an ornament to fishing in SA. I spent many an hour chatting with Rob and always made it a point to stop in and say g'day and buy something whenever i was down that way.I know his daughter Amanda and the family are shattered as you'd imagine. RIP Rob.
