Re: Arrow Squid
And they are stronger than the southern calamari too you can see here he’s got all 8 legs kicking trying to get me ha ha.
The normal southern ones just flop like jelly when out of the water.

Re: Arrow Squid
Psycho squid they won't kill you to eat unless you have an allergy so give it a go and decide for yourself.
If I'm targeting squid for the table I'm going for southern Cala but as by-catch they aren't terrible.

Re: Arrow Squid
It,s been mentioned that they are aggressive, don,t take this lightly!!
They will definitely take a piece out of you if you get you hands anywhere near their teeth and they bloody hurt.
When you next catch n kill one, have a look at the teeth,like a parrot beak.

Re: Arrow Squid
I caught a couple of nice Arrows at Cunningham pier last summer. Was reeling in a nice flatty and was just taking my time savouring the fight untill out of nowhere an Arrow apeared and latched onto my flatty. What was already a good fight turned into a tug of war, i ended up lifting my flatty out and slowly hoisting it up onto the pier while the Arrow squid still holding on. Its amazing how aggressive the nature of this squids are and i wouldnt have believed it if it had never happened to me. Also there was a small chunk missing from my flatty from its bite.
