Caught three small squids from St Leonards.10-15cm hood. Cut up and ready when needed.

Looking good Seb!

Perfect bait ready for the season!

There is a proverbial **** tonne of bait in the bay at present

Dog gammit... now I have to work extra hard to trick them to take a lure.

Is this due to netting bans or just because the bay is getting healthier each year?

probably a combination of both

The bays just healthier and nothing to do with bans. First time I've been out there in near on a decade and there's at best a poofteenth more showing up on the sounder compared to then. Might mean a repeat of last year where thinking outside the box gets the best results and just sticking to the usual means it's a **** season for you

Less netting = more
