Squidding

[gotshot]

We were at the pier yasterday with the grandkids and they removed the recepticals. Every time I turn on a light they crowd right in. One night I was there and didn't know why people were giving me plenty of room but then when we were packing up I realized the butt of my gun was sticking out of my coveralls. OOPS.

  sometimes you got to do what you gotta do to get some space!

I use the edge of asians lights too, seems like they are always there in force

I got there about 9:15 and fished until 12:00 ish.  I might be headed out this thursday or friday.  If you want to hook up, shoot me a PM.  I too have a generator and a halogen light, which I was planning on bringing next time, now that I know it's okay to bring.

I'm from spokane but will be traveling back west for christmas weekend, bonney lake area.  I know it might be a long shot, but would anyone be willing to give me a few pointers or be out squidding and willing to help me out?  Feel free to send a PM if ya want.  I do a ton of fishing and have gear for saltwater and freshwater.
Thanks in advance

The only etiquette that's a bit abnormal for squidding is don't get mad if someone cuts your line when you tangle with them, it's not personal it's about getting jigs back in the water. Whoever brings the light set gets prime choice on where to fish said light. Other than that the asians have an understanding that the best spot is in the corner, whoever is first gets it, after that you gotta wait in line til they go home. I got mad at not being able to even get to the end of the pier so I went to harbor freight and bought the 80 dollar 2 stroke gennie and a cheap halogen and electrical cord. I started fishing off to the side and did almost as good as the people in the great spots. Since then they seem to be more friendly and respectful towards me.

By recepticals do you mean the electrical outlets? We never needed generators at Les Davis, back in the day, they always had outlets.

I went out last Friday night and did better than the first time.  A couple friends went with me and we brought the generator and lights.  I ended up with 9, my buddy got 6 and they were much bigger than the first trip.  The funniest part was this Asain guy kept coming over and looking into my bucket and at my backpack, which had my gear in it.  he was trying to be so sneeky, but was doing a horible job, so I asked him if he wanted to see what we were using and he said no and ran away.  Oh, well!!  We had a blast.  Now that I have  enough for a meal, I can't wait to cook them up.

Went out to the steilacoom ferry pier. My wife ad I slaughtered them compared to everyone else. We only got 5 though. usually it's tons of squid this time of year

  Went to edmonds last night.  Three people fishing, and the were doing excellent.  Big squid too.

My buddy and I went out to Les Davis last night and it was pretty slow.  Between the two of us, we got 15 in about 4 hours.  I made a friend with a lady who said she is out there every night.  She gave us some helpful tips.  I am going back out next week and I'll let you know how it goes.

Just got back from my holiday over new years. I didn't get a chance to post but a couple of my buddies and I fished from 7pm to 2am. The fishing was so good we filled a 3 gallon bucket and lost track of time  . My buddies bailed and I ended up staying up till 5am cleaning, vacuum packing and freezing squid. There was a seal chasing a giant school of squid at low tide. It was quite a sight to see. This is my second year squidding and I've never seen so many squid.
