[4] However, their population swings, short shelf lives, and variable size make them a difficult squid to catch. [5] The highest catch ever (7,914 tons) was reported from Japanese fishing boats.
The Patagonian squid is a small species and has a mantle length of 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 in) and a weight of between 75 and 150 grams (2.6 and 5.3 oz). [4] The mantle is somewhat elongated and on either side at the posterior end are rhomboidal fins , rather less than half the length of the mantle.

The European squid is a commercially valuable species. It is caught in multispecies trawl fishing throughout the year and, seasonally, in small scale and recreational fishing with a variety of gear. In the Adriatic Sea, the total annual catch of the species is around 1,000 to 1,500 tonnes. This is very variable and is probably linked to the ...
