I am a total newby to squid fishing. A couple questions
1. Is it true that squid avoid strong currents? I have been fishing off of a dock on the Guemes Island channel between Anacortes and Guemes Island. Pretty strong currents but there are slack areas by the dock.
2. Do you have to be in an area where it is pretty deep to find squid. I have a large area where I can take a boat out that is about 25 feet deep for a long long ways. Will squid come into shallow areas like that? There is much less current in this shallow area.
3. What is the technique for using the squid jigs? Just cast and retrieve or work up and down vertically, or other?
Thanks for your help
