Squid shocker

[Deep Sea john]

fishing johnsons ( near frenchies) saturday night i got a small but whiting type bite thought not another small whiting.
when i landed it pennel rig fouled it a squid about one and a half pounds first ever on this
coast in 45 years bright red and coverd me in ink. i have had octopus but not squid
has anybody seen any lately must be the warm weather this winter

[toonboymc]

Any pics mate

[bigroppa]

Ive had them on spinners in the summer but never landed one on bait. One that size would make very nice eating!

Was it a cuttle fish very much like a squid they start to move closer in shore in spring to spawn.

Found one washed up but still alive on Bamburgh beach last December. I returned it safely to my freezer.

I have had great success recently fishing with squid
I wondered why, as I always thought squid was from deep cold waters well away from the North Sea, & wouldn't be too much on inshore fishes diet!!
