Just a question... How do you "kill" a squid humainly before you pull the mantel out and head off?
Cheers,
Stewart

I have been given the following advice from a friend in squid research:
"For
recreational fishers who want to minimise pain I'd recommend putting the
squid on ice or in a seawater-ice slurry asap - technically this is called
cold water anaesthesia and is supposed to 'dull' their nervous system,
before killing them."
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Glen

We used to catch heaps of squid down at Bobbin Head and Apple tree bay when we were kids. Lots of fun and good eating. Only ever little squid however.

Do you fish for squid using lights from a boat?
Setting up a light off the boat into the water should attract small bait fish which should in turn attract squid.
Does anybody do this with any success.
Cheers

Pulled one out a couple days ago at Apple Tree Bay after an hour of stuffing around or so. First time ever squidding so i was probably doing something wrong. Last night went there with a couple mates for a few hours and we didn't pull out a single one. Another fella that popped down got a decent squid. Haven't tried Bobbin Head side yet.

been down to ATB a few times more over the past week, and although i can see them floating around, they just dont want to play. A few more fellas that have apparently been squidding ATB/Bobbin Head for years are saying that there really are sweet stuff all around anymore. Water quality is severely poor compared to what it once was.
I went over to the Wharf at Bobbin Head, and i honestly cant see where it would be suitable to pull in squid? No weed beds or structure from what i can see.

Yeah, will admit, im having more luck wherever i go with a really really slow reel-in then some quick jabs on the rod. Very very limited luck using the "proper" jap technique. Maybe im just not feeling them?
