Bob - They could have been langostino. This was about 5 years ago and I had only been fishing for a short time and bugging a couple times so I guess I could have been confused. Good point.
Mike - Sick story! Good info on the digestion rate. Where'd you come up with that? Educated guess? I would have thought it takes much longer for a meal to digest but have nothing to back that up.
Last summer I caught a YT full of squid and one sanddab. The yellow was caught on the surface, w a flylined greenie, in the kelp. This fish had clearly been eating on the bottom outside of the kelp forest. The next week I went out a couple times to conduct an expiriment. I covered some ground in areas near my previous catch that seemed like they would hold squid nests and dabs. Spent a ton of time looking at the fish finder. My hope was to be the first one to my own secret squid bite. Never found a nest and didn't get any results. Anyone else use this strategy and come up with good results or do you guys think it's a waste of time?
