[quote name='jkjnp' post='15432' date='May 25 2009, 10:11 AM']My first post, but I've been a lurker for a while here....went out on the FF last (Sunday) night. Was consistent action all night long for me and my wife. We were bailing them for the first 1 and a half. Over all we filled two 5 gallon buckets on the evening. Boat was not totally full. Huge squid. We've got some serious cleaning to do right now. I'll try to post a pic or two after I weigh it all this morning.
Most interesting thing to note--the Captain decided not to turn on the lights at all all night long. Certainly didn't affect the fishing and I heard him telling the mate that he thinks the lights may have actually spooked the squid both Friday and Saturday nights...
It showed me that lights are not required to have good squidding.[/quote]
Was on the same boat (first time), me and my dad filled a bucket apiece...would've liked to see the lights on the last hour or so, but overall an enjoyable trip
