Quote:Â Bruce, Yamashita makes warm jackets in many different models and sizes. I do not know what model and size wasn't working for you, but I used the Naory RH warm jackets in size 1.8B last fall and they were super deadly. If you use the smaller sizes like 1.5 or 1.8 you need to use very thin line like 4 or 6 pound test or the jigs don't get a good action while jigging. These jigs also come in size1.8D but those sink much more quickly and did not seem to catch as well as the 1.8B model. They will not sink with a really good action if you use 12 pound test or larger. My buddy and I did not get squids on the Naory warm jackets on some nights last fall because there were no squids around on those nights, but we got around 2,000 squids when they came in. We had some impressive daytime squiddin too last fall, all with the same warm jaclet Naorys. The original Naory Range Hunters did not have the warm jacket and they work really well, but the warm jacket Naorys only came out here last year and I assure everybody that they are super squid killers if used on very light line. Best of luck to you when the squids return this spring!!I've got aurie-q warm jacket model 1.8 size.
Obviously I really didn't have to buy yamashita jig last year.
I run some test last 3years with a lot of different manufacturers.
It certainly wasn't work for me most of them but I can able to dial my technique.
However, I was able to caught more than 5000 squid by myself.
There is no room for big freezer lol
Hopefully I can do same thing this year
