queensland My First Ever Squid

[ebeaver2007]

Hey Everyone,

i've been a member here for a while now but this is my first ever post.

After work today i arrived at the rock wall of manly boat habour around 11:30am.

first cast i was on with i think could be a tiger squid not very sure as it is my first squid.

this was the only action i had all arvo. i packed and left at 4 as the water was getting quite low.

what did the damage was i think its called tataki branded pink prawn 2.5 grams

here is a picture of the squid below

i would love to catch more as im still learning

can anyone point me to more locations land based to try?

coat them in flour with salt pepper and chilli flakes then into the hot oil

hot and crunchy.

this how i usually cook my arrow squid that i buy from the markets

Nice work on your first Squid mate, I went out the other night to try a few spots I know with no luck but it looks like I should've stayed local.

[ebeaver2007]

just cook it up

damn was it good

so much different from fresh to frozern ones

prob made around 12-15 rings from the tube

put it up in the "going fishing" section if you are mate, especially if you're staying local like last time, i'm sure there's a few of us that live around manly/wynnum that would come down and have a fish with you. if i'm not busy packing the house i'll head down as well (just don't plan on going when the broncs are playing!)

[ebeaver2007]

yeah against storm no way i miss that game as well

plus i start work at 4am on sat so friday nite is ruled out

just have to work out my schedule and see what kind of fishing i feel on the day lol

so its either sat nite or sunday

[BassTracker]

Nice you gotta be happy with that

[ebeaver2007]

sure am mate,

i tried last year but no luck and just watching everyone else get em.

guess its my turn.

hoping to catch more in the future
