Heading out on friday for the first time. Any tips for it. Ive got a handful of jigs. What kind of rod should i be using and how deep do they fish? Basically i will be grateful for any help i can get.

Everything is better on the rocks.

Guy who posted on the squid board said he did well with them last weekend. If you want site pm me

Get some large and small jigs, pink, blue,green. Sometimes color and/or size can be the difference.

Rig three jigs on dropper loops with a sinker loop on the bottom. You can use a weighted jig on the bottom instead of a sinker. When they are thiock you can catch them two or three at a time. Frank is reporting that the bite has been good lately.

Thanks for the help guys. Hopefully i will grab a bucket full of the tasty bastards. If i do good i think i will have a calamari eating contest. I think i could do at least 2 pounds maybe 3 depending on the breading.
