Then just one flip if in a fry pan in oil and it should mostly stay together.

Good report mate.
I lost my job so works a bit speratic atm (getting every second night instead of consecutive nites) and i have to take all the work i can cos probably slow down in jan.so ill fish more then lol
Plus have a marlin trip in march and you be proud lol going to try catch a marlin on a lure lol.

I sent you a message about fishing boxing day. Thats my next day out lol.
Thort you mite tag along for a comp day. I was thinking going mornington but if you cant find them there i try my normal spot lol or try down near flinders.

Squid rings sure look good.
Im going to do a flake, flathead, squid and snapper cook up for my dads birthday on 27th so should look as good as yours

sorry about your job smiley, hopefully something permanent comes up soon.
and good luck on those marlin, hope you get yourself a big boy
the fish were at mornington, but supposedly out deep 20m plus, i didnt go that far out
ill let you know about Australia day, i must have missed that message totally, just seen it after you mentioned it here..
im sure your seafood fest will be a lot better than my concotion :a_goodjob:
and yeah numbers or size i dont really care, let fv be the judge hahaha

thanks that was a good job in the way of duties but frustrating, but wasnt happy, they say they want best practice and ensure we follow policies but when i reported someone for breaching 5 policies in 15 mins when i arrived early rid of me.
looks like they just want to bury there heads and denie it ever happening.
now i work the 2 agency jobs and much happier but work just isnt as regular but much less stressful and no one breaches policy's. lol

i got you message, will reply later.
we will see, been while since i did a cook up.
ok ill put the pics up and the public can decide lol

Yep. That certainly sucks. Hopefully better to come in the new year

Yep need a full time job but can just plot along with the agency.
Gives me more flexibility while my dads sick also.

I find Panko crumbs to be the best for squid. But you can stick with your flour and seasoning mix. Just don’t use cornflour for the main bit.

Thanks mate. This is lemon pepper not salt and pepper i prefer the lemon pepper to salt and pepper calamari.
I also get it from coles. Masterfood make them and can find it in the spice rack section
