What do you mean by japanese style jigs? Do you mean the non-prawn style with an umbrella hook? Or traditional with an Asian-style hook (spider hook)? Thanks for any help you can provide. I am a squid jig manufacturer and I am trying to gain an understanding of the local definitions of squid jigs. For example, in my region, we have no prawn-style squid jigs. So, we call the jigs with the umbrella hook a "traditional squid jig" and the traditional (upright) jigs made with the Asian-style hook (spider hook) a Japanese or Asian jig.
Good info you provided above -thanks for sharing.
I'd be thankful for any information you or others reading this post can provide. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />

yes i meant the prawn style jig with the umbrella type hooks although when the squid are under the boat they seem to take anything but the prawn type are definetely the best in our area
