I don't know your screen name... but if I remember correctly your real name is Jason.

Jason caught the coolest of all the catches I saw at the Big Bird Port A trip... 4 pinky nail sized squids. They had super cool markings and looked very healthy and I think he caught them with a "blind scoop" of the net.

Just curious how they are doing. Would have been a cool thread to document everything from capture to captivity.

yeah he's a really cool dude Ivo, jay, and I were out there at night catching shrimp. Dude is super agile on those rock at night. He was sprinting back and forth like nothing.

The squid had wicked big eyes, huh? Reminds me of cartoon squid.

Alas, poor Yorick...none of the squid made it past a few days. I'll give a try again when I catch some more, but I have the feeling that the stress of being in a bucket all night while we were collecting pretty much did them in, despite my air pump. Next time I catch some I'll be heading right back to deposit them in a tank.
