Midsummer Squid Fishing?

[lasker31]

A friend was out this week near the coast in 60 feet of water fishing for fluke on an incoming tide in the morning daylight and he said they couldn't get to the fish because they kept hooking up with squid. He said they were hard to get on the boat because they would fall off the hook (which he said was a fluke jig baited with squid) but he did manage to land a dozen 6-10 inch loligo.

 

That said, does anyone have experience squiding in the summer. Any advice is greatly appreciated. TIA
