Caught a bonito in King Harbor friday and it had 4" squid in it's stomach.

Manhattan Beach squid or RB canyon ?

How much is a scoop or half scoop of squid anyway?

[E.A.R.G.]

40 for half and 60 for full I believe.
85 percent sure

[SAN PEDRO BAIT CO]

40 for half and 60 for full scoop.

[OnDaHunt4Fish]

What about if you have a small bait tank and need a 1/4 scoop?

[SAN PEDRO BAIT CO]

We sell a "kayak" scoop for $10. but its geared for kayakers. Most bait tanks on boats are capable of handling a half scoop for $20.

What is your phone number so we may call and check before we come out?

Just want to be sure... Is that $20 regular half scoop? On your previous post you said $40 for half $60 for full.

[SAN PEDRO BAIT CO]

The $40 half scoop is for live squid.

[Androoshk]

Do you guys still have live squid? or at least any fresh dead?

[smokehound]

So you wont sell me a "kayak scoop" if I'm not kayak-bound?

[DockRat]

I am pretty sure you can get a $10 fin bait kayak scoop. My boat has only a 8 gallon bait tank and for a quick after work trip 1/2 scoop is way too much, they have sold $10 Yak scoops.
Always tip them $5 minimum for even a Yak scoop.

Those bait guys sit out there day and night even in poor weather and don't get paid much.
My buddy gets 2 scoops and tips $20. Always tip your bait provider.

Seen boats scooping squid off Flat Rock Pt PV (thur 1/19/11) night.
Also in LB down at a inner channel at Pier G saw mackeral getting air being chased.
No bait or seal seen, possible WSB chasing Macs ?

Squid and finbait are different prices. I think your getting confused with squid and finbait prices ?
I think $20 is 1/2 scoop of finbait. $40 is 1/2 scoop of Calamari.
Buy more than you need. Eat your bait. Mmm Mmm Good.
That fresh Calamari is better than those Crappy Sand Bass.

And how! These guys take good care of me, and I take good care of them. +1 to The Rat for saying a kind word for the bait folks.

[Wkendwarior]

What scoop of finned bait best fits in a 5gal bucket bait well?

[SAN PEDRO BAIT CO]

a kayak scoop for ten dollars

[Wkendwarior]

Thanks very much.

[Chubom]
