An 'aussie pole'? Not me, I catch most of my squid from a boat, so I use fairly soft rods and 6-8 pound line. But poles can be useful for fishing from piers etc, I have one that I found washed up on the beach! Maybe it got pulled off a pier by a huge squid. The pole I found is MASSIVE, like 16 feet long or something ridiculous like that. But it's also quite heavy so you end up with tired arms if you use it for a long time.
