hi beakman
The reason why you wernt catching any squid is simple, they just wernt hungry and no jig lure or bait will entice them.
I have had this happen to me on numerous occaissions and it can be fustrating to say the least.
BUT I have expirienced times when the squid were about but couldnt hook one till I started to cast along the peir instaed of straight out and then retrieved the jig very quickly and hooked up every time, sometimes they go for color, sometimes they go for the chase, sometimes their just not hungry and nothing you will do will make them bite.
