I was going to go tonight but didn't because of overtime at work. I might go tomorrow since I'm off and the wind should calm down. Gotta go see if sports chalet has any jigs.
Do they use the single large jig or use the jig we use for smaller bait squid with multiple tiny jigs with a bigger jig in the bottom of it, if that makes and since

I would bring a big jig the 2' model, and also the medium sized ones 10" models. Don't forget to bring sinkers. The smaller jigs will work but if we get into some bigger models they'll rip out. You really want to catch'em 1 at a time, more than that might be a problem....

Hopefully they hang out for awhile...enough to start seeing them up north in our hood...but you can never wait to catch these things if you want them. They could all dissapear tomorrow for all we know...

What size sinkers. And I had no clue there were 2' squid jigs :eek: I thought the 10-12" ones were the big ones

We went out last night on the Seaforth outta Mission Bay. It was fun experience. I would suggest to take a look at the weather forecast to prevent the sickness.

Half the boat was:drool5:

I have 2 big squid jigs forsale. Shoot me a pm if interested

Did ya catch any and when it was all said and done how much does a trip like that cost? :D

icelogger
01-07-2013, 08:11 PM
Yeah I caught 4.

All said and done it was around $75 including a squid jig, meal, and tip for filleting. I brought my own rod.

I was on the Clemente on that 1/5 trip. We got into them below San Mateo Point at the bottom of San Clemente... outside of Trestles. They were 5-10# averaging 8#. My son and I each got 20. Except for one he kept the others were stomped and released to feed the crabs. Lots of fun! They charge $3 to clean one and you had to have anything you kept cleaned on board... the landing doesn't want ink dripped on the dock, sidewalks and parking lots. The 7 oz 3-prong glow in the dark squid jigs are perfect. They worked better than the 20" mondo models. We used 40# and 50# line but 30# would've been fine too. Just get out and kill all you can while they're around. Dana is charging $25 and there's no jackpot available. They're locusts of sea and need to be gotten rid of. BTW, they actually tasted pretty good fried up!

I know you're up north but Dana Landing in MB has BOGO on the squid jigs. Like them on Facebook to see the special. Just FYI.

I went out last night, and not one person caught a squid down in San Diego on the big jigs. All of our squid being caught were on the medium jigs

510 giant squid last night outta DP. Cant wait! Heh heh! I saw some squid pictures this morning and they are indeed the good ones. Extra processing is not required on these, other than removing the membranes... just fryem up, the best calamari!

I did this maybe 10 years ago. First and last time. It's definitely a cool experience but one was enough for me. They were so thick that i watched the cigarette butts from the dickheads that flicked them in the water get picked off the surface. Indeed they are ravenous bastards and better off much farther from our inshore waters. The ones we were getting were 4-6 footers though. Good luck out there tonight fellas.

does that mean there is actually a catch limit on them? Has the size improved at all or still sub double digits?

danjor
01-08-2013, 11:57 PM

Catch limit is when the deckhands decide there's too many to clean.
Same on our boat except we had to sit and wait until they cleaned them all. Didn't get in until 11 :eek: fishing was stupidly wide open. I kept 10 and catch, stomped and released 30+ more, I lost count around 25 and caught a lot more. Every time I would kick a dead one in another one would pull it back down to the depths within a few seconds. Lol
Great experience but I agree this will probably be my one and only time I fish for these.
BTW anyone want to buy a slightly used squid jig? $10 its the 10" smaller version of the mondo one.

Well the Squid fish'n went pretty good last night. We spent more time looking for these damn things than we actually spent fishing. When we finally found them....it was good fish'n, it only took us an hour or less for most people to get as much as they wanted or wanted to pay for.... Just like danjor said you got your limit when the deckhands decide there are too many to clean. I wanted to stay and catch more but....we probably would still be cleaning squid out there right now....

OMG these are so tasty!!!!
After cutting the membrane off the top and the bottom. Roughly 1/16 off the top and bottom.
And soaking in milk overnight, lightly breaded and fried this is better than any squid I have had! No pounding or tenderizing needed and the overnight soak is probably not necessary either.
The best part I have about 19lbs of steaks left!

That's awesome Tony. Glad you got some squid. Those pics are sweet. I had to throw away a pair of new jeans after getting totally inked. Bastas!

My squid are still in the freezer. I have been trying to find a good recipe other than just frying um up in butter. Anyone have good squid recipes?
