New York Squid

[Egiman]

You use high low rig or single jig? What size and color? Do you use any underwater light?  I only got around 10 squid one night most of the time everytime I go, I think the gear I use is too heavy. This year I am going to try 4lb forocarbon fishing line. Lets see..

 

I think water there is pretty shallow during the low tide , you can see squid down there during the low tide?

I only been there only once, and one guy told me that another guy got 80 squid in around 2 hours, I think he might talked about you  :thumbsup2:  :thumbsup2:  :thumbsup2:

Whoa, looks like you got the squid bug pretty bad. I actually just submitted a comprehensive article on off-the-dock squidding that I expect will be published in the Nov glossy issue of The Fisherman magazine. It will cover everything. If you don't buy the mag it can be viewed online for free. I've been fooling around with a diagram of my fave rig. I'll see if I can give a sneak peek at that. 

 

As for tides in Huntington, Low tide is too low there. I've done best near high tide. They also don't seem to bite at all during slack. The squids are very sporadic in their appearance. You've got to put in time. Never know when they will show up in numbers and suddenly you get double-headers for a crazy half-hour, then they're gone again.
