New Jersey....USA Caught them in the surf and IF I could find a way to catch more than 2-3 a night I would do it all the time. The Squid wallop the jig and actually fight hard, plus there nice size!! Using a single slow sink Youzuri A333 Mirro Lens in Pink....It is ver slow sink and seems to be the one. The water is only like 5-6 ft deep. Looked into the Harbors adjacent to the beach and found none...Harbor was choked with Bait, Sandeels, Rainbait and Spearing. The surf spot was awash with spearing (silversides).
Â
I know there are squid in NY but a 3 plus Hr drive makes for a rough drive home....Plus the traffic and conjestion is fierce. Rhode Island is Done...and that is a 4+ hour ride. Trying to find em in the Garden State....there were some ramblings about Barnegat Bay....All I need is the oceanographic requirements....dont want to oddly search harbors that have no chance. For instance there is Atlantic Highlands and Keport...those harbors are surounded by Raritan Bay...so...do they go into bays?? I was under the impression that they were picky about water quality.
Â
Hurricane Sandy did a number on the NJ coast it seem to shuffle the deck. This is the first I ever saw of Squid in the Surf...the beach guys were catching them on striper plugs! Again not in numbers, but squid don't typically swim alone.
