[quote name='luftnpanzrwagn' post='6617' date='May 4 2006, 02:17 AM']went squidding last night in the wind and rain. caught 36 squid in just under an hour and a half. i decided to leave when my squid-light ran out of batteries.
i have been using my homemade squid-light for 3 seasons and it works like gangbusters... it's just a waterproof flashlight rubberbanded to a spool of 60 pound test, anchored with a 6 or 10 ounce bank sinker.
I usually rubberband it facing up and send it to the bottom... but sometimes i rubberband it facing down and hang it a foot under the surface.
I came up with this rig because gas generators and halogen lamps are simply not in my budget.[/quote]
nice diagram. I'm gonna have to give that a shot
