Just waiting for the run and reading through the thread I decided to review the posts from 2009 and Alan posted on April 30, 2009 that he caught "one". (page 17 of the 2009 thread) I was out there too last year but couldn' t remember when I started seeing squid.
The water temperature posted by NOAA on April 30, 2009, between 5:00p (9.9c = 49.82f) and 10:30p (10.8c = 51.44f), assuming that Alan was out there between 5-10:30p. If you check the thread from last year, between pages 17-22 there were some catches being posted, I would have to guess that this was the start, "of something". Also considered that some may not have posted their actual catch in the beginning.
Anyway, I just can't wait for it to start and since date and water temperature is the main question everyone has on when the run may start, including me, I thought I would look it up.
I haven't gone out to GI yet, but will probably do before the weekend to see what's swimming out there. Will keep you posted.
