Its looking a bit windy offshore so it will be hard to get out to where the stonkers are in the kayaks but looking forward to having another crack and i believe there will be a cook up afterwards of some squid.

Whose going to clean them ? :D

See everybody down there on sunday and i heard rumors Busselton and Albany might get a crack at this as well (possibly Dampier to)

Busselton would be perfect,,landbased on the jetty,,Geo bay for the jet skis,kayaks and boats,,

[Shortytheyakker]

Well it looks like some well known forum members cleaned up in the boats .:D

Think it was around 6 kilos for 10 ?

Well have to wait for comfirmation .

Which jigs did the damage guys ?

[Online store]

I think it was 6.9 kg thereabouts for the 10.

Jigs that were on for me were a Yo Zuri, a mega bass and a natural colour Yam a s hi ta which I nearly cried when I lost.

I think the jig of choice for Dror was an orange Daiwa jig with a rattle. Or that may have been the one that he gave up on... Pretty sure he will post up what he was using.

[sammy]

that is a huge squid

[Online store]

A yound bloke of about 9 years old I think he was weighed in a 1.5kg squid, that is a big squid.

Got one a week ago that would have given 2 kg a nudge, was another team that had 10 squid last weekend for 8.2kg. (pre fishing for the comp)

There are certainly some big squid out in the sound at the moment and on the flip side there are also a lot of those smaller to medium size around as well.

[Shortytheyakker]

A pink mega bass in 3.5 won the kayak section (2.4 kg for 5)

I will get a few pictures up later 6.9 kilos is a big bag,,

[Shortytheyakker]

Heres some photos to start off with,,
The prefish the week before was good,but it all started off for the yakkers when Mr Squid Paul Willis gave a 2 hour talk on catching squid a few days before the event
