The quiver sounds like some sort of gaff that they snag the squid when they can't see it coming.[/quote]
The quiver is a 2 meter rod with a net. The squids will come to the surface where we catch them with the quiver (you must catch them from behind). To make it more complex, the first squid we got, we will put a hook carefully at the backside and will tight this hook with a string under the lamp, so the squid will attract other squids to come. On some nights we catch about 70 kg squid this way.
About the light. The light is gasoline lantern (coleman, Petromax or Butterfly) the type you need to pump. It has nothing to do with Black light. For every one knowing this type will know that the light is more a yellow light. The Lantern will hang about 1/2 meter above the sea.
Ypu also can use spot lights using a generator. Output should be 400 Watt.
