lastnight was one of the slowest nights to date... i only ended up seeing 4 squid in total.... mayb due to the rain? besides that coniditions were quite ideal for squidding (calm clear water, light current, light winds).... i ended up getting one squid to strike out of the 4 that i saw... but again, the main problem for me now is to actualli get them hooked... there has been numerius occasions where the squid would strike at the jig, appear to be hooked on... and just before id scoop them out of the water, they would let go.... im constantly keeping tension on the line while the squid is hooked, so im guessing maybe these imitation jigs dont have very sharp hooks???
i also met up with another squidder lastnite..... think his name is randy? he manged to spot afew in another location but couldnt seem to hook the squid either... i wonder if he ended up catching them???
