Just got back from a brief visit to Thessaloniki. If you have a few hours to kill here then its easy to catch cuttlefish from the seafront here. Theres a small fishing stall by the port at the end of the promenade where you can get a handline and a couple of jigs for a few Euros. Judging by the ink stains you can catch them along most of the promenade. The ones I caught were quite small (200g or so) and were caught in the middle of the day on a small prawn style jig with a small weight about 30cm in front of the jig. From what I understood (and this might be wrong!) the squid proper only come inshore during the winter.
