How many ways are there to retrieve a jig?

[2hotpotato]

I'm not a big time squid fisher, I've been twice and had great success.



I used a relatively small razor back about 2 yrs ago and pulled in about 10 squid the size of a forearm in 30 minutes.



I was watching some TV show on tbs and watching some guy hooking up like 4 squid once. It didn't seem like he was retrieving them.



I'm was under the impression the best way to retrieve the squid jig was to let it sink, bring it up a bit, let it sink, bring it up a bit etc...



So I was wondering what methods you guys use.
