The Boat: Two sampans. One driven by the son. One driven by the mom and the dad.
The Idea: Your hook is a fish. You jerk the line here and there to imitate a fish darting in water.
You draw the line up slowly and hopefully the squid come along. Squid only come out at night and are attracted to the strong lights.

Tips: Patience really is virtue. Squid squirt ink. If anyone has gone fishing, you know that when the fish comes out of the water, it tends to struggle and flop around. Squid flop around and squirt all over the place. Hold your hook with the flapping squid over the side of the boat, above the water so they can't suck up water and squirt that at you along with the ink. Then pull it up and take it off the hook.
FACT: The squid have spots that appear to flash when they are dying as the ink/blood rapidly circulates around their body. They look like little blinking lights. Perhaps that was too light of a way to talk about dying squid...
The Reward: Freshly sauteed squid with a little garlic and soy sauce. MMMM!!!
