Hyannis and Edgardtown Squid

Quote:Thanks Gil.. I'm a convert.

 

But one thing that drove me crazy was all the wind knots and twist on the 6 pound fluoro.  I may just put a 10-15 foot topshot on and use heavier line for the base.  Maybe a couple of inline spro swivels also. 

 

It was breezy, but it's always breezy when squid fishing.

 

I don't normally fish with line this small.  Heck, even my rigging floss is thicker than this stuff.  Anyone have any thoughts on how to prevent this on line that is finer than hair?

 

Dont reel against the drag.  using light line with a very slight drag setting makes it easy to reel but no line comes in=twisting knoting line.

If not coming in for you pump the rod up and reel down but the more you reel without taking in line just twists the line to the point it breaks easily.

Especially pulling doubles and the deeper the easier it is to twist line.  I use 6 lb most of the time when I step up its to 8 lb test.
