got 5 pounds fishing at 69 last night! Despite the muddy water, gotta use orange jigs to penetrate the mud so the squid can see your jigs! Most luck with an orange jig than the others I had in my box!

The bite has been sucking because of the Full Moon.  It sweeps the bait and squid in and out.  The currents are too strong the baitfish and squid are more spread out.  The New Moon always supplies the best bite.

At this point NO one needs one!!! No squid to even catch... My opinion everyone should have one if the squid are here, chances are fish are also.The best stripers i got last year was when i was squiding all night and using my catch to cast out for anything that would bit and before sunrise every time i would get striper action. If u are a squiding why not GET ONE to be on safe side like ALGREENJR said why take a chance during a good or even great squiding day. WE are over due for the SQUID. This week for sure :th

Hi Ken, good luck in the Hole. I'll probably be across on the Vinyard. To get ahead of the game bring small rods with 4lb test line for the best action. If you try it with even seven foot rods and 10lb test you will not do as well as if you use light sensitive rods. Sometimes Red Top Tackle shop in Buzzards Bay has some good jigs. I like small 3" or smaller jigs in pink, green, or orange. Bring a bucket to put your catch in or you can use zip-lock bags and bag as you go. Sometimes they will hit on the slack tide but it is usually better when the tide is running, just like other salt water fishing.

I also have a great idea for a powerful light that puts out 1000 watts and only draws 250 watts. Only costs about $55 to make.

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?Posted Image
I make them for Ted's sport center

#24682 Squid Fishing in Burma (Myanmar)

Posted dieter on 27 May 2012 - 10:17 AM

Just go to any fishery harbor in Myanmar and ask fishermen to take you out to the sea. They know where to find squid and definitely return with much more then you expected.
There also some trips from Ranong/Thailand to Myanmar water. Interested people organize the fishing trip by themself and be out at the sea for some days (also catching big fish).

Cheers, Dieter

Water has been very dirty as of late. I think thats why it's been slow, along with blues and bass being around chasing them around the bay. The water should clear up in less than a week, given that there is no storm coming threw. Couple of in and out tides, the water will be nice and clear again.

The full moon fishing thing..I hate fishing a full moon, never any luck. During a full moon the tides get higher/lower and the currents are stronger. Making small fish like squid not to be able to stay in one area.

On a normal night at a place I fish, I would be able to hold ground with #3 or #4 sinker during fast currents. But when a full moon is in effect, I wasn't even able to stay with #7 sinker. I'm not trying to find out Saturday what size sinker I'll need to hold ground.

Also, what re the best hours? We're plannign to go from 11pm - 1am like Southolder did.

Thanks a lot for the replies, I am referring to the dock right behind the Aquarium. It's entirely possible I have missed a no fishing sign there, but it's definitely not enforced (at least I've never seen it enforced, and it's generally pretty full of people, they even drive right onto the dock). Here's a link to the dock I mean: http://g.co/maps/ezj9j

I was using 20 lbs mono, and I'm thinking that may have been a big factor. I switched to 14 lbs fluorocarbon, and if that doesn't work I'll try something even lighter (The 14 lbs fluoro I have actually breaks around 10 lbs even with the recommended knots tied with a lot of care, a 10 lbs mono I have will break around 12-15 lbs with those knots).

I went by the dock (late) after work tonight and people were definitely still catching squid. I'm going to give it another go tomorrow though. I also got a fairly small (3.5 in) pink yo-zuri (couldn't find the martinetti locally, but may order one) that I'm going to try. I'll post how it went tomorrow.

How much are squid selling for? Too windy today, didnt get out. Things are pretty stirred up. Hopefully it will still be good.
