I like yozuri shrimphunters - an awesome jig but expensive, and therefore scary to fish close to cover. The smaller yamashitas are great (especially when the squid are shy), but I find they sink very slowly - normally this is good, but if you're drifting quickly, or fishing in a strong current, you'll need to fish them with extra weight. My favorite jig for shy squid is a tiny Yamashita 1.6 in green - they only have one row of hooks, but nail finicky squid regularly for me.
Some other more pricey brands that I have great faith in are Hayabusa and Egi-Lee - but at $25+ a pop they are not for everyone.[/quote]
Yah, shrimp hunters are great, worked well for me. have you guys tried yo-zuri flash dancer and pheremone skin jigs before?
