[quote name='glen' post='13368' date='Dec 24 2008, 08:18 AM']hi egi zed, thanks for the tip. i never tried fishing a squid jig lying on the sea bed. do you have a good hook up rate?[/quote]
Personally I don't. I have a bad lost rate <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crying.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rod:' /> But mates who can do it without losing jigs tend to catch a lot more than I do.
Autumn squid tend to be quite voracious and swim around a lot so you don't need to fish the bottom so much but as they get shyer they tend to stay near the bottom more. Most japanese squiding patterns involve bouncing the jig along the bottom.
