How to Catch, clean and Cook squid from Altona with Video

Post by thebigal_au » Thu Mar 21, 2019 6:11 pm

Thought I’d share my latest video a 20-minute special on how to CATCH, CLEAN & COOK squid.

Video can be seen here - https://youtu.be/8vGvxUImbRw

On the weekend we launched from Altona and headed to shallow water around 4m deep and drifted around. Using a range of different squid jigs. ( 2.5g black and 3 gram UV white ) we catch our bag limit of squid. At which time we capture this footage and share some tips on targeting squid. We then take the squid home and show you how to clean and cook.

I made this video after receiving messages from followers asking for advice on this exact topic. This video highlights that even kids can catch squid and prepare a great meal. Enjoy the video, I hope these tips help you and remember to sub the channel.

Job well done, Al , , , , can I call you Al? Paul lets me :-D

That is the best realistic video on how to catch squid that I have seen. There is basics about catching squid but no rocket science, you kept it how it is , simple as it is. No fancy egi twitch, high tech rod or chitter chatter about how everything maters. Plonk it in, do what ever and bang "squid on".

And the squid cleaning is spot on (which I do if I land-base catch, but I use a scaling bag when on the boat , , , , just personal pref, that's all). The biggest trick/knack is getting your finger (thumb) under the wing cartilage base and pulling off the skin/membrane all together.


But, where you won me over is , , , , it's all about the kids, great how you are with your Daughter :thumbsup:

Ummmmmm, about the cooking. If you UberAl , , , , can I put an order in :-D

Cheers, Bugatti
