Squid As Fishing Bait

Buy the Award Winning 'Esca Lures' online at http://www.escalure.co.uk/

Calamari squid is a good cod bait especially one or two mounted on a large hook but I think the Loligo squid is recognised by most anglers as the squid to have. Loligo squid (unwashed) is most affective because of the abundance of squid around our coastal waters and so the fish see it as a natural food, and of course (unwashed), it retains all it's properties without having anything destroyed. Frozen Calamari squid can be bought at most tackle shops in 1lb or 5lb boxes.

The ink inside the squid is the thing that gets the fish, a bit like the effect of the coral inside a crab I suppose. There is a bit of a debate about which type of squid fishes best but I must admit I do like the baby squid that normally comes over from China. You can either tip off with one whole squid or use a few to act as one big bait on a pennel rig. Also with a squid bait, it does resist the crabs for a while longer than either mackerel, herring or a worm bait being a lot tougher and it does make for a good 'tipping' bait.

Often during the winter months I will use whole squid on a hook and make a big, big bait, cast at distance it will often sort out the little' un's from the big 'un's. It does tend to get less 'bites' but bigger fish. I fish the steep shingle beaches of Norfolk and Suffolk more often than not over winter using two rods, one cast at distance like I have just described and another cast short possibly set up as a 3 hook flapper, with various smaller baits. Using two rods isn't always practical on the likes of the N/east beaches I used to fish when a young lad, being shallow surf type beaches meant you were often chasing the tide out every few minutes and then getting chased back yourself as the tide turned. Using one rod was enough, the less gear the better.

You can of course use squid to 'wrap' other baits in. I often cut and wrap a piece of squid around other baits such as mussel, unused lugworm from a previous trip etc making a nice sausage shaped bait bound with some elasticated cotton and then frozen down ready for my next fishing trip.

Most of us think of squid as a 'boat' bait or for winter fishing for the likes of cod and whiting but bass as we all probably know are becoming more and more popular as a sporting fish and one a lot of anglers drool over, trying to find them by using various methods such as popping, using jigs, lures of every colour and description, live baiting for them, using worms and just about every other method they can discover.

One very successful method is to wrap a sand eel in a slice of squid and secure the squid with a bit of elasticated cotton, leaving the head and tail of the sand eel protruding. This method helps to protect the eel and it should keep a lot longer on the hook before having to change it. Use a small weight on the end of your line, you can get small spinning weights which prevent the dreaded line twist. A hook snood as long as possible to comfortably use to a decent sized hook, add your squid wrapped bait, most species have larger mouths than we tend to give them credit for, use as you would a plug or a popper and away you go.

Happy fishing.

Comments: Squid As Fishing BaitTop Tuna Fishing Lures

Tuna are powerful saltwater fish that are highly prized source of food. Some species of tuna can weigh over 1000 pounds and are widely distributed around the world. Sport fishermen consider tuna to be the ultimate big game sport fish to catch and very few anglers will get a chance to catch these monsters due to accessibility and over fishing commercially have reduced the stock dramatically. Some of the top producing tuna lures are the artificial squid and feather jigs.

One of the best methods of tuna fishing is trolling from a boat. Trolling requires heavy lures and can be done with natural bait or artificial lures. Daisy chains and spread bar rigs are two great producers for tuna fishing. The daisy chain rigs are used to attract game fish. The lures are rigged together into strings and trolled at different speed depending on the conditions. The chain simulates a school of baitfish and usually the last bait has a hook hidden inside it. Many anglers like to use ballyhoo, herring and artificial squid as bait for this type of rig. If you are new to the sport, you can buy ready-rigged daisy chains at the tackle shop.

The spreader bar rig is an enhancement of the daisy chain rig. Instead of using a single string of bait, the spreader bar utilizes multiple daisy chains attach to a steel rod and trolled behind a boat. This method imitates a larger school of baitfish. Many spreader bars can be used at the same time to further increase the formation of baitfish. Similar to the daisy chain, the last bait or lure of each spreader bar has a large tuna hook attached. The idea is to make it resemble a game fish chasing a school of fish.

Trolling with feather jigs is another productive method of tuna fishing. These types of tuna lures can be trolled individually or as a group. It consists of a leaded weight jig head attach to a feather skirt. A leader is threaded through lure and tied to a large hook. Feather jigs come in many colors scheme. Choose natural colors of baitfish for normal conditions. Fluorescent colors can produce great results and work best in low light conditions or murky water.

Tuna fishing with daisy chains and spread bars rigs is a lot of fun. Watching tuna darting up to surface and hitting the baits is an amazing experience.

What would be the appropriate way to connect a piece of Marabou to an Ice fishing jig?

I found some Marabou feather lookin' stuff, it's pink and some of it's purple, I want to tie it on a jig head or ice jig to fish for Crappie/Bluegill with. How could I do this? Would Crazy Glue or something like that work?

Wrap it with thread and then superglue it. Works good.

I've wrapped plenty of treble hooks with Flashabou to put on my Topwater lures. (I also put a "dessed treble" on a Husky Jerk and it works well.)

Hope this helps ya bro?
