A beautiful Monday morning in Portugal - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Ramos23 · 04-20-2009, 08:01 AM

Hi!

Today I went to my place of choice, Beach of Albarquel - Setúbal, to another attack on Cuttlefish!

Here are some pictures

A postcard of the Beach Albarquel and my Kayak named "Barracuda"

More pictures of the beach

My first catch

Another catch, now in Video

Can you see the "Ballet" side fins and attempts to make some new graffiti on "Barracuda"

A short stop to go to the bathroom and to take another Picture

And here is the final picture of the fishery

I apologize for only now have put some photos here, but the fisheries have not been much

Nice pics. What type of fish are those again? Are they good eatings?

Hi

The type of the fish is Cuttlefish

Wich is similar to the squid

And yes is very good for eating!

Cool report, looks like a nice place to paddle.

Interesting Catch! The launch looks like a breeze and the scenery to top it off! You're a lucky person!

If I remember correctly they tast more like Lobster than Squid. Having never fished there, I can't help but think paddling out past that point in the background and using those things for bait. I doubt we are the only creatures who think Cuttlefish are delicious. Please, for me, take some of those guys out to deeper water. Maybe just a flyline with a 4/0 Owner Gorilla hook or something similar, let them swim mid column for a while before giving them more line to reach the bottom. I'm sure if you allowed them to they would just hide in the sand, no good. Please post the results.
