One thing I'd like to mention though, is how getting out on the water everyday has really helped me build up my squidding technique. Quite a few times down there I've outfished people standing right next to me using baited jigs or Yo-Zuri's. I couldn't believe that my $2 jig was doing so well haha.
I had one guy with a green shrimphunter start chatting to me and he was watching me reel in squid one day so he asked if I minded if he fished alongside me. I said it was fine so he set out cast right near where I was jigging. I managed to land 3 squid and he had 0, although my technique was very different from his.
On other days though, I've caught 0 while it seems everyone else on the jetty has filled their bags. Squid it seems are very tempremental creatures and can't make up their minds.
Heading out there tonight, should have another report for you guys soon.
