      Fishing can be a high intensity environment with men crossing from one direction of the boat to the other, crossing paths could cause the cables to become entangled and possibly result in injury from falling.

    The "coming to a beach near you" line is no joke. I'm from Vancouver Island Canada in the Pacific Northwest and back in 2006 we had a flood of humboldt squid migrate to the western side of the island. The dead ones were washing up on the beaches in the hundreds for at least a month...

    He said so this is the beast but that was a small one. Ive heard Humboldts can be 6 ft. If you look at their beak, jagged hooks on their arms, their aggressiveness and extreme intelligence you might not worry about the Humboldts so much but what about a giant squid up to 50 ft. They have proven it exists.

      I only saw it clearly for a few seconds. And everything looks a little bigger under water. It looked like he was 5 ft long and at first it was cool to see it swimming. Then it decided I was chow and in a second it clammed on to my left thigh and started pulling me down. After it latched on to me I think it was more like 3 ft. The whole time it was flashing red and feel it chewing threw my wet suit. I was at 90 ft so I inflated my bc and that was the only reason he couldn't get me down and gave up and left. I am really grateful their wasn't two or more I would not have made it. The locals warned about diving deep at night in open waters. Hopefully you live and learn.

    These squid are just a lot bigger versions of arrow squid from where i am from. Arrows are very aggressive as when you catch them they try and grab a hold of you, which is pretty funny to see and watch once they're out of the water. We are normally going for Southern Calamari squid from Victoria Australia but you can catch these arrows from time to time.
