I usually catch about 3 when I'm out there from 9 to midnight. It's not enough to really do much with but right now I've been pickling them and I'm trying a few bait cures. The tides seem to have almost nothing to do with squid. Sometimes I think the prison ferry brings them in but every time I start to believe that the squid don't show up at all. If it's your first night out tho I wouldn't expect anything this time of year. There's a few nuances sometimes to the jigging that are hard to get a feel for unless the squid are around. I'll def school you up as much as I can if I can make it out there tonight. The most productive squid catching times seem to be the most miserable nights. The ones where the temp is constantly dropping and theres a nice cutting breeze and a gently drizzle of rain that won't go away. Maybe I'll see you out there tonight.
