Nice squid there Johhny- bigger than the ones I'm getting at the moment.
Looks like I will be trying deeper next week!
And yes the Sound/Mangles Bay has been closed(crabbing) for eight years now. That's a very long time for a closure,and not getting a lot of information from Fisheries about the latest situation with the Crabs in the Sound.

nice work - question to all - when drifting in the sound, does anyone ever put out a few crab pots? - would have thought there may be a few around?
