How long to disgest a squid??

[PaulS]

I caught a striper last night that I tried to revive for about 20 min. After not having any luck, I decided to split the fish with a guy who stood there and asked for the fish. I told him if he fillet it we could split it. Anyways, it had a large squid in it that looked perfectley fresh. I caught the fish in a river off of LI sound and don't think there are any squid there. How long would it take to digest the squid as I doubt the fish was in the ocean that afternoon?

Eastern or Western Sound?

don't know if the regs are the same there... but here(MA), you cannot mutilate the fish till it is home... head and tail must be intact... you may gut the fish but that is all.....

Western sound. Good point of the filleting, I normally never keep a fish so I'm not sure of the regs. Ignorance is no defense thought

Squid are everywhere this time of year.

Pounded squid Tuesday and Wednesday night. They were everywhere and can you say calamari?

Yup, the regs are the same here.
