yes, I remember. the only squid I've fished for were three footers behind the boat at night in the lights with squid jigs. I cannot imagine fishing for the big boys, especially in that depth of water. Sounds like a real ink fest! You might end up with a giant swordie.
I'd think the challenge will be to find exactly where they are. Not sure about hook ups since their actual mouth is a beak. There has to be a good reason why squid specific jigs are designed with all those spikes instead of hooks. Might have to make some kind of flying hook rig with trebles and target the tentacles.
Let me know how you do. Love to see pics of your lures.
