woodys squid.

 

 Well its only a couple of days before the kids have to go back to school so we decided to have some fun on the water. With light winds on offer drifting in four metres at parmelia bank was a joy.

It didnt take long for us to get six onboard with Jesse getting pick of the bunch with a hood of just over 300mm and his sister Emma picking up a couple of beautys. There was yelling and screaming at times with all three rods going off at the same time and trying to dodge flying black ink which I didnt, but the kids come out with not a bit on them which they thought was bloody funny .

With the snorkelling gear on board we shot over to garden island for swim and with the water so clear it was hard to get them out of the water after an hour.

On the way back to the ramp we picked up another couple of average sized squid and then headed home for the fun part of cleaning the boat and squid.

It was a top day to finish off the school holidays with the kids going back to school and me hopping on a plane back to Telfer for a week. Lightly crumbed squid rings and salad topped the day of nicely.

Cheers

In clear sight of a major city can you do this.  Brilliant and a great recount of the action to go with it.  Must be hard to head back to the salt mine
