During the middle of a bright sunny day is usually not the best time to catch squid mate, BUT that doesn't mean you can't catch them during this time. I'd personally be trying early morning or dusk. It is good that you tried all those different coloured jigs though, you're definately going about it the right way.
A kayak fishing friend of mine has been picking up some good sized squid (30+cm hoods) in close around Point Cook while trolling lures for snook during early mornings - I am still amazed that the squid will hit a fairly fast moving lure, but he's shown me the photos and it's a genuine report. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' />
