捉墨魚，可以綁隻墨魚乸引墨魚公，但要捉魷魚，此法不通。小時在吉澳未見過有人識釣魷魚，但近年釣魷魚的人很多，吉澳人個個成為專家。

 

說到在吉澳捉魷魚，要介紹一個人物，澳背塘的「客家有」，客家有原名冼有，外來的客家人，原本住沙頭角麻雀嶺村旁邊的石橋頭，有個哥哥，兄弟两人以捕魚為生。後來冼有娶了個水上人在吉澳落户，在澳背塘搭了間臨時屋居住，倚靠澳背塘海、印洲塘養活一家人，閒來無事就到東澳打打「天九」或者「十五湖」，日常生活“他條“。

 

我留意過「客家有」一家如何捉魷魚。先找一把“芒葉“和“蘆慈葉“ 放在「大窩」對出的海中心，這樣會引魷魚來躲藏遮陰，大約將芒葉放两三天，「客家有」、「烏仔」父子和「客家有婆」全家出動，坐上舢舨帶備魚網，把魚網繞着“芒葉、蘆慈葉“圍一圈，然後慢慢收網，魷魚便成甕中之鱉，手到拿來。

When it comes to catching squid in Kat O, I would like to introduce a character, Hak Ka Yau from O Pui Tong. Originally named Sin Yau, Hak Ka Yau was a Hakka from outside Hong Kong who originally lived at Shek Kiu Tau near Ma Tseuk Leng Village in Sha Tau Kok and had an elder brother, and the two of them made their living by catching fish. Later, Sin Yau married a fisherman and settled down in Kat O. He built a temporary house in O Pui Tong and relied on the sea of O Pui Tong and Yan Chau Tong to support his family, and in his spare time, he would go to Tung O to play "Tin Kau" or "Fifteen Lakes", which is his daily life.

 

 I have noticed how the Hakka Yau family catches squid. First, they put a handful of mango leaves and lucerne leaves in the centre of the sea opposite to the "big nest" to attract the squids to come and hide in the shade. After putting the mango leaves there for about two to three days, the whole family of Hakka Yau, Woo Chai and Hakka Yau's wife go out on a sampan and bring along a fishing net. The whole family of "Hakka Yau", "Wu Chai" and "Hakka Yau's Wife" would go out on a sampan and bring a fish net. They would circle the net around the "Mangrove Leaves" and "Lo Tsz Leaves", and then close the net slowly, and the squid would become a scallion in the urn.
