Well i have good news for Squiddfishermen in Kota Kinabalu,
Because i am trying to promote this newfound sport of egi-fishing, I will share as much as i can about the hot areas where Squid have been biting. Its time to ink Jesselton POint Jetty with the squid-ink mark. So. I set out tonight to Jesselton Point despite the obvious low tide i was warned about.
However the sea was very calm tonight though, with instances of bait fish breaking the water surface. So i switched places and booked my place under a huge jetty spotlight. Cast a line and begun flicking, and was promptly rewarded with these guys
s
but after two , thats where the tables were turned... lol... many more squid appeared partying under the jetty, but not this time, and nothing i do will entice them to grab neither Yamashita or Yoz-uri, haha ... the most they'd do is investigate by chasing the lure everywhere but there are no more takers... untill an hour later when that fish beside me smashed my pink yamashita range finder 2.5. II think its called a dragon fish
Overall, It was a pretty productive night and although the squid threw a tantrum straight after i bagged two but there are so many of them under the jetty. So i Conclude Jesselton Point Jetty is a good spot to try for arrow squid at night... I wouldnt know what awaits me during the day in the same location. lol , well thats up to you to find out.
