My dad has a huge allotment it’s not his land he rents it off worcestershire council and come the end of summer into Autumn he starts the process of pickling some of his peppers, onions, and fruits so he can make jams etc plumbs anything he can pickle really.

My two cents so far, do the opposite of mackerel jigging, slow and delicate when you feel the weight on the end all the way in.

Damn those were big squid! Here on the opposite side of the Atlantic, when we jig for squid from piers, what we catch isn't much larger than your lure. They're good eating, but when you separate the body from the tentacles you're done - both are bite-sized. The problem with public pier fishing is that as soon as you pull up a squid, people will come over and drop on either side as close as they can get. I mean four at a time. I recomment fried squid. Salt, pepper and a little hot pepper flakes. High heat, quick cooking time. Add a soy dipping sauce with sesame oil, vinegar, crushed ginger root and garlic.
