Well I made my own light over the holidays. He was a good jigger, just having a bad night I guess. At least now I don't have to fish off his light anymore. Does anyone here jig for smelt too? [/quote] Would love to find out about smelts as well. Great fish to eat.

Well I have a Sabiki rig on the way, might get it today in time to try some smelt jigging tonight. I hear a number 4 or 5 smelt/Herring rig is what you want to use here

Went out squidding this morning and got around 4 pounds before a seal came in and decided to bite my jig and snap my line. I lost a jig that I got while pulling up a crab pot in the summer. Does anyone know where I can buy this jig?

Anyone know where to pick up some good jigs around Tacoma area?

At Edmonds last night, I got 12 squid, 3 lbs of Herring and a flounder, haha. I also caught 2 starfish and a kelp crab, was an exciting night of squidding, hah.
Herring taste great and are fun to catch as well. If you are squidding this time of year I recommend to keep a size 5 Sabiki rig in your jig box. Squid are slow and see a school of Herring or smelt? Clip on the Sabiki rig and use a bottom squid jig as the weight.

Keep a 30lb outfit with you and drift a live squid, a seal is one hell of a fight!! Passes the time anyways.

Until you get caught harassing a federally protected species and end up in jail.

looks like the squid season has ended here in the northwest. See you all again next year.
Happy Squidding!!!
