zaki10 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hi Guys, Went out Saturday 26th for a quick squid session, used 2.5 - 3.0 Yamashita bright coloured and natural coloured jigs, we managed nothing for two hours straight so we packed up and went home for the night. I was wondering if anyone has any different techniques for this area that I could try next time? Tight Lines Zac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefisherman6784 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Use smaller, natural colour yamashitas Me and my friend find 1.5-1.8-2.0 to be the most successful for us but all in natural colours Hope this helps Cheers thefisherman6784 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00ROTA Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 -2 Larger the better. Try moving around more until you find them. I use 3.0-3.5. Smallest jig I use is a 2.5. Squid are sight predators. La perouse holds a lot of southern calamari at the moment so they will go for a meal over a snack. What was the tide doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00ROTA Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Should add, the 2.5 is only used in Cowan creek where small squid are found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The water was very rough that night, hard to explain really what it was doing but I think I might try spikes with pilchards see how that goes.

Scratchie Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 If the current is pretty strong, try using a paternoster rig with a float. Works a treat and really doesn't matter what size jig you use. The key is getting the weight right. Cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
