[quote name='TentacleWrestler' post='10811' date='Apr 25 2008, 01:52 AM']I was introduced to "squidding" a couple of years ago, and now, I'm addicted.
Like most forms of fishing, everyone has their own opinion on what works best.
I've gone down to the dock, seen hundreds (if not thousands) of squid, and sometimes, they just don't bite. No matter what color jig or lighting you're using, they want nothing of it. Yet, other times, I've gone to the dock, and you could use a Volkswagen Beetle with a hook, in complete darkness, and they'd bite.
Nevertheless, people have told me not to use my lantern at full power, and others have said; "Get as much light on the water as possible!"
Other than these things (sometimes) being picky, can anyone give me any tips on what they commonly use for lighting?
Tight lines![/quote]
lantern lights have always worked for me... this year i'm going to try underwater lighting (green, blue, white)... i've invested about $140 for the 2 sets of lights and another $100 on the portable battery... i'm hoping to try them out this weekend once good news start rolling in... i'll let you know...
