Hi All...

Just started on squidding, seen few ppl with ease catching them but I still havent caught one yet!!

Can anyone please tell me what sort of gear is needed? Line? reel?etc...



Thanks, Gids
hey mate, any rod suited to 1-3kg , 2-4kg .



Reel anything around the 2000 / 2500 size



8lb flurocarbon line... some people use up to 20lb to avoid snags...



My favourite squid jigs are yamashita egisuittes in 1.8 PINK / GREEN

Daiwa MDs 3.5 in fire red and the gold colour....



Hope that helps, Brad
Thanks for the tip.

Went again this morning...wet and all...still nothin!!!

try again for another day...won't give up till catching one.

Cheers all...
make sure there is kelp beds, weed beds around... where are you from?
Kingsford, Sydney - NSW... but targeting La Perouse (Bare Island) for the squid.

And ur self?
