88 ranch market in temecula.

$7 fresh frozen 3lb box. And basically unlimited supply. Literally 100's of boxes.

I've heard so many opinions on boxed frozen squid. Some say WSB won't touch it because it's been bleached (youtube, WSB seminar). No info on YT.

Anyone attest to the success of a bite on this boxed frozen squid? Either WSB or YT?

My recent catch had a squid in the belly with the ink sac still intact. Do the squid you get from the landings still have the ink sac intact? Or is that only available freshly caught?

That's why you should get San Pedro squid. Its fresh frozen, no bleaching.

I would say that squid for human consumption should be plenty fine for bait, less chemicals. Besides the san pedro squid, I would say the other bait squid would NOT be good for human consumption. Ill trust stuff thats good for human consumption before i trust stuff used for bait only...
