A beautiful Monday morning in Portugal

[Spinal Tap]

They are very good eating. Their body walls are thicker than squid but if cooked right, they are very tender.

Ramos, in that 4th picture "My first catch", what is that stuff in the cup holder? Do you use regular squid jigs?

thanks,
Nate

Is that the ocean? Med Sea? Looks like a lake. Beautiful.

Hi

What I have there is a sponge that allows me to clean the dirt that the cuttlefish do they also throw jets of ink as the octopus

And yes I use regular jigs thar we can find in any store of fishing in Portugal
here you get a picture

Responding to rdahl

That beach is in teh end of the mouth of a river of fresh water, so the water is salty and if we walk a little further we go out into the Atlantic Ocean


P.S. - Sorry my english

Wow, it shows what is regular in one place might seem quite odd in another. I've never seen squid jigs like that where I shop or perhaps don't look in the right spots.

Fascinating post.

Refreshing. Looks like a cool place to paddle out. Thanks for the report

Those jigs are are available at alot of popular big name tackle shops. Try bass pro,cabelas,meltons,I've got several but can't remember where I got them....Use can also use these on a dropper loop rig,tying several or more on several loops off the main line. For catching california squid of course.

I learned Portuguese in Brasil. I have lots of friends from there and perhaps I'll retire there, although I have thought about Portugal too. I have family in Madrid and in Santander. As I get older, I want to get away from the crowds and settle into a more simple way of life. Both the northeast and south of Brasil as well as parts of Portugal can offer this.

Now that I know there is an active kayak community there.........melhor ainda!!!!

I read and speak Portuguese better than I write it. Feel free to PM me in Portuguese. Nao tem problema nem um.

A pleasure speaking with you and learning about your kayaking experience. Perhaps we'll meet and do some fishing next time I travel to your country. I'll send you photos of my brother and I doing our kayak thing here in Southern California.

Chau,
