2021 Rhode Island Squidding

[Gilligan]

You folks fish my style, one jig, changing size, colors, and weights with conditions. Are you using a tiny snap (no swivel) at the end of your line? I always do, started doing it just to make it easier to change jigs rather than trying to see four pound flouro in dim light. Then I was outcatching my buddy with identical jigs, line, and similar rods except he was tying the jig on. He now uses the tiny snap too. But if one watches the Yamashita squidding videos they always use a tiny snap, I believe it gives better action to the jig than tying it on. It may not matter much if using the big 4" YoZuris, but it seems to make a difference with the smaller jigs. Very happy to hear you have learned well and are outcatching many others like pros.
