Easily caught 50 each. Every sardine was a hookup within seconds, live, dead, chewed up, whatever. Frozen squid got demolished. My buddy reused a single squid to get 5 calico. It was crazy! Tons of fun. Again, didn't keep a single one even if they were big enough. Basically we just just handed out free meals to bass all day. All that to say I don't know how much skill was involved, we were just in the right place at the right time out of luck mostly lol
Now I'd love to have a day like that with YT instead of calico!! Might keep a couple of THOSE!

When you caught those many fish with the squid were you just using squid on a hook or plastics with a strip of squid?

Just flylining full frozen squid on a circle hook and letting it float off in the drift. It was usually getting bit in less than 6 feet of water about 20 feet away.
