Totally agree. The small ones I caught in jamestown were awesome. I also have to say the smaller squid do come into the canal early in the season. They do come in very heavy also. The ones that hang around have to be a different type, as they are just too big. From what I have read the smaller ones only have a lifespan of 1 year. These bigger ones are definitely over a year old as the biggest one I caught last year had over a 16 inch tube. I have about 15#s of big ones I am going to use for fishing bait, I will share with whomever wants some.
