Oregon Giant Squid Fishing Report 2007



Quote:From offshore out of the Columbia to the ocean out of Brookings, anglers are reporting hooking up with Humboldt squid. These critters have been running from four to seven feet in length. The evaluation of their culinary value varies from one angler to the next who has tried them. Evidently, the secret to tasty squid is in the preparation. Recipes are widely available on the Internet.

The Humboldt squid have been available in Washington waters as well.



Generally the guys out fishing for Tuna out of Westport have been catching them at night. I have had quite a few customers getting jigs to take out on their Tuna trips. The charters don't advertise this, but Tuna Fishing during the day, then at night you can fish for squid. The reports that I have gotten indicate that there are plenty of them out there.

Quote:Earlier this month, Bob and Karen Shoemaker of Lynnwood were trolling for coho salmon at Nootka Sound on the west side of Vancouver Island when they latched into a pair of giant Humboldt squid that weighed 25 pounds apiece.



Back in 2004, a flood of the behemoth squid made an appearance off Washington with some dead ones washing ashore on the southern coast.



They are commonly found off Mexico and southern California, but rarely come up as far north as Oregon.
