Squid Jigs do not have barbs so if you move the jig up and down aggressively you just unhook the squid as fast as they grab on. I drop the jig to the bottom, give a few slow rod lifts, wind a few slow cranks, jig a few times, then repeat. Like Greg and ful-rac said, its about feel. Squid wont pull or tug like a finbait but you will feel the jig getting heavier. When you feel a bit of wieght wind the jig up at a steady medium speed. Any pauses or pumping can allow the squid to get off the jig. I've been using a 4oz glow back iron as a wieght and I like the results. And what the hell, I might hook a wsb or yt on it. Some times the squid will hit a glow bead sibiki better than a squid jig. Its worth trying if they're a bit shy and there isn't much finbait or lizard fish around. Mike
