Hey lavaman I'm going to assume your from New England somewhere, since you posted in the Newport,RI topic. If your going to fish in GI i suggest using a jig size 3.5 or lower and using a sinker size 1/2 oz or smaller. that is what i use, some people at GI use 2oz sinker which i think is way to heavy to feel the squid taking your jig.
Here is my setup I have two jigs on my line one 3.0 and second 1.5 or 2.0 with a 1/2 oz sinker on the bottom. I normally tie the bigger jig on top. Now when I'm not catching at all i'll just take the sinker off and just let the jigs slowly sink down to the bottom.
I'm going to Gi thursday night ill be near the first yellow ladder looking straight to the newport bridge by the basketball court. Feel free to come ask me about it if you go.
