Danno, Just about to head back to Perth after 5 weeks in Busso. I have never known the squid to be as quite as they have been this year and I have been coming down for about 6 years.

Agree with Stilly, Sep/Oct best time of year down at Busso.

kicked arse at dunsborough over the xmas/new year break.

an hour squidding usually produced a good 12 to 14 massive squid. it was more than enough to feed 6-8 adults.
