Arrow
Squid (Nototodarus gouldi) Commercial Fishery Information
Arrow Squid
are caught on the edge of the continental shelf, usually by jigging or trawling,
information about the Commercial Squid Fishery and Seafood companies that supply
squid.
Commercial Fishing for Squid:
Geographical
location
Arrow Squid are a pelagic species found over the continental shelf from the
surface waters to the bottom at depths of up to 500 metres. They tend to
concentrate in areas of up-welling and oceanic convergence. N. gouldi occurs in
the warmer waters around the North Island and the northwestern South Island,
while the more predominant N. sloanii is present along the southeast coast of
the South Island and in southern waters. Similar species are found around
southeast Australia, Fiji, the Philippines, and South Africa.
Availability:
Main season December to May, but available year-round
Physical attributes
Arrow squid are white with bronze tones on the mantle and head with black eyes.
There are two arrow squid species that are not differentiated at harvest—N.
gouldi and N. sloanii. Both species have smooth cylindrical bodies and short,
pointed tail fins. Males have tubercles as well as suckers on their ventral
arms. The ivory-coloured meat, covered by a speckled membrane, is firm, tender
and shiny.
Spawning
Evidence suggests that both species live for about 18 months and spawn once
before dying.
Fishing methods
Both species of Arrow Squid are caught on the edge of the continental shelf,
usually by jigging or trawling.
Did you know?
Since 1993 squid has been the #1 fishery in California with amounts caught of
118,000 tons with a value of $41 million in 2000. The population fluctuates
greatly with the El Niño. During these warm water currents populations increase
greatly.
