Hello everyone!
I went fishing Saturday night Jan 17th from about 6:15 pm to about 1:15 am or so.
It was an OFF night! I got 1 - one lonely Squid around 9:30 pm. It was small. My
friend that usually catches a lot - got ZERO - 0 Squid. One problem we had was a
seal that was around us the whole night.
We used our under water lights - and THEY WORK GREAT !!!! LIT UP THE WATER LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE ! This did attract a lot of anchovy or sardine type small silver fish & the SEAL. As soon as the SEAL appeared, everything else
was GONE !! We stayed there expecting the Squid to start 'hitting any time' but they never did. I used my new rain suit and good thing I did - it began to rain as
we were packing up to go home. By the time we got into the car, we were soaked.
I look forward to using the lights again & we were told that we need a pile of rocks to throw at the seal. So, next time, we will be 'armed with rocks' to throw at
the seal to chase it away. We are sure that's why the squid never did show up in big numbers.
My friend saw the seal eat 2-3 Squid right between the cords of our lights as they hung into the water. It ate them right out form under us literally !!! GRRRRR!
I am an animal lover but not when it interfears with my fishing!
Hopefully everyone else did better than we did - hahaha.
