[quote name='nala' post='19496' date='May 26 2010, 08:25 PM']G'day Ian,
I have been using jigs under a float as a back up since posting that question some time ago, and I have also moved to the dark side using baited jigs as a back up as well. (I hate dead baits as a general rule). But I am a sucker for lure fishing of all sorts, it is clean, no smell, and is more 'active' and more involved in my opinion, than just flinging some dead thing over the side and hoping for the best.
Cheers,

Well Nala The biggest cal caught last saturday forgive me if i,m wrong from the info i recieved, was caught by a young fella first time squiding and was using a float with a silver whiting, 53 cm hood i believe., the only reason i say that as some else said 49cm but i,m sure a mrfisho member will clear that up <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I,ve never really been a keen bait/float cal fisher i too like the jig/float method but i think i might start using the bait/float method when i can get the opportunity to do so while i,m egiing <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

May as well increase my chances.
