Hi David, I live on the Fleurieu but have not done any real fishing(but it has always been at the back of my mind) for around twenty years, finding your videos has given me my mojo back. So last Saturday I went to Normy Servo...new rod, reel and the usual piles of stuff to go with them. Off to Myponga Beach tomorrow to try my luck. Your beach worm vids are very informative going to try Normy/Carrackalinga next week for them ..wish me luck!! . Thanks so much for the inspiration. Rgds..Mike

Hi Mike that is nice to hear mate I'm happy to help. Fishing is a wonderfull pastime with so many benefits all year round I hope your first endeavour goes well at Myponga beach. off the beach mullet are top of the list and starting to show up this time of the year burley is essential. I'm sure Jeanett or Bruce has helped you out. Ha and yes I will wish you luck with the worms I will say make sure you learn how to catch them they will make a huge difference to your fishing they are not easy but good fun learning just get them fingers below its white head.

Hi Mate, yes the squid feed well at low tide as well as high tide they also feed well on a dodge tide which we get twice a month on the half moon cycle thats when we don't have much tidal movement for a couple of days in South Australia.

[@pezza3137]

Hey Dave. Did you cut the weight off the squid jag or is it unweighted from factory? I suppose you get less snags by it floating. Regards Perry

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

G'day Perry. The squid jag is a cheap one around 3 dollars, I peel the cloth off it doing that reveals the coloured foil underneath also the sinker simply pulls out when you do this. Then I slice the foil around the head end and peel it off bellow. Then you have a customised squid jag. this technique in this video works a treat land based and off jetties.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Joel, thank mate. The squid jag is a cheap 3 dollar one I peel the cloth off and that exposes the coloured foil underneath and the weight just pulls out leaving a weightless squid jag what floats, then I simply slice the foil around the head end and peel off the foil below. and away you go. Give this a go and I'm sure you will be impresses. this way works a treat land based also jetties.

Hey Dave love your vids very informative just subscribed last time I went there they had no fishing signs so I didn't have a go is the breakwater okay still to fish?

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Robert, the no fishing signs are for no fishing on the inside of the boat harbour, they can be a bit miss leading. There is no body in charge of the boat ramp at present and boats are getting a free launch, the local council is going to take charge sooner or later the shop at the boat ramp is closed until whenever, things may have changed but I don't think so. Yes fishing is ok any where on the outside of the harbour, you could probably sneak a cast on the inside after seeing whats going on around there. All the best Robert and thank you for watching commenting and subscribing mate.

Great video Dave, we’re gonna head down there tomorrow to give it a shot. Do you know whether there’s any other species we can go for there?

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Daniel, the squid may be a bit quiet being winter but you could still catch some. for fishing can I recommend float fishing because there is a lot of weed and rocks, if you use burly especially the one I make on my burley video you will see big Drummer and zebra fish, there are also leather jackets if you fish the bottom carefully with a light sinker also Tommy ruff may respond to the burley and possible snook late afternoon using small shallow dive hard bodied lures in pilchard colour. hopefully the water is clear that will be good. All the best Daniel Cheers David.

Hello David, I am trying to figure out the name of your rig. " Floating squid ....(jack) hanging on a dropper loop " The question is how do you tie your rig ? I could see a double line to the squid and a single line to the weight ???

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Poh, firstly I tie a swivel on the end of my main line then I tie my trace line to my swivel I use 20lb trace line you can use what you like to use, then I come down about 30cm from that swivel and pinch the line between my fingers and slide my other fingers down about 60cm bring that point back up to your other fingers to form a 30cm loop keep hold of that point and wrap that loop back down your doubled line twice, keep hold of your line and bring it back through the eye you formed by doing that and pull it up tight, now you should have a 30cm dropper loop now continue down your trace line below that dropper about 70-80cm cut off at required length and attach swivel for sinker. then you can attach you floating squid jag to your dropper loop through the eye, just remove the sinker from a old squid jag and it should float, this way of fishing for squid is quite good when you get use to it.

Looks like you have removed the weight from the jig . I tried this method but jig kept tangle with line. No weight probably solve that problem. BTW love your videos 👌👌

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

G'day darren, yes I remove the weight from the cheeper jags or cut them down much smaller. when they are removed they float and you get very few snags. I do get the occasional tangle not many though. On my first video down on Wiring Break wall I go through it a bit at the start and mid way through. Thanks Darren

[@fishmut]

Hi David , just a question do you use light line for squid ? What’s the ideal line strength to use ie 15 pound or lighter. Cheers 🍻

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

Hi Ytanythinggoes, the line I'm using in this video is 25lb but 12lb-15lb is fine, bear in mind if you have to lift your squid to land them. Some people will say light is better. I personally think squid only have eyes for your squid jag and the line doesn't really bother them.

[@fishmut]

David Sheldon Fishing , thank you , much appreciated, can squid be caught all year round or better in some seasons, ie summer as to winter etc.

[@davidsheldonfishing9726]

G'day mate, squid fishing generally starts up in spring (September) and finishes late Autumn (late may) but some places you can catch squid in winter time i.e. Victor Harbour and Port Augusta are a couple of places I know of. Fishing is full of surprises though.
