Ricky Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Hi guys.. I use a teaser most times when i go squiding, and find it works great and was curious if anyone else uses this method and their thoughts... I tie on a yakka through the nose and mouth with a needle and line and keep it barbless. I attach this to the desired depth behind a float, and onto a handline. If fishing from a boat i drop the teaser in and drift over weed beds. I find when a squid grabs the teaser, it's friends usually hang back and stay interested. I leave the teaser in with the squid happily eating away and cast a jig in to catch its friends. Regards Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsRule Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 We sometimes use this method when were land based, it works! its deffinatley an attractent for them even burlying up a school of yakkas helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big-Banana Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Definitely the best way to catch squid, especially if they;re a bit jig shy. You can they sight cast and hopefully the yakka has got them excited enough to grab the jig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zrealist Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 i was on a fishing charter and we were catching no squid at all until this girl poured the rest of her coffee into the water thats when the squid started to show up. So i'm thinking maybe coffee attracts squid in the morning as well??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royboy Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 That sounds like a wet dream to me . I have those types of dreams too sometimes, catching fish that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SZ1 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Hi there, iv tried this technique b4 but not with live yakka though, I just used a pilly on a set of gangs under a float then when the squid attack it and eating away i would cast at it and get his friend, i would say the yakka would be a better option as its live and would kick and attract the squid better. but when there is no yakka's the humble pilly will do an alright job at it.
