This is probably one of the coolest videos I have ever watched. Squid are more aggressive than I thought. Fast, man they are fast. Thank you so much for this. Very cool. Huge like. Wow.
Really interesting footage, I'm also a keen squidder from South Australia, I'm almost 60 and have notice how smart they've become since the 1960s, when I use to catch them using a peeled potato with a jig shoved through it. My mate uses only weightless jigs mainly because we do shore based squidding and to get the jig down deep enough you sometimes get snagged and lose the jig. We never use multiple jigs here though, I think i might give it a try. Thanks for the clip, very interesting
interesting. I was in SA earlier this year and saw lots of squid fisherman probably 60 or so on the dock. I wonder if they are just spoiled for choice vs the 60s when maybe it was just you and another with potatos.
Yeah, I'm really liking the Yo-Zuri the more I use them :) Let me know if you end up trying them out and have a similar or different experience with them!
I am a weighted jig pitch fork holder. Haha. If you go out on a squiding pier and watch people, you will see some people catching significantly more squid despite using similar jigs to their neighbor. Squiding efficacy is surprisingly very technique dependent. For weighed jigs... You must actively jig upwards. If you are lackadaisical with your jigging, you will not effectively catch them. Once you hook one you also must maintain tension and reel them up. IMO, this means you must use a fast action rod and impart a quicker upwards jig. Any additional weight means a squid and you furiously reel upwards. Any odd bump or lack of a bump from your jig reaching the end of the slack on the drop... Also means a squid and requires a quick upwards jig to "set the hook". The most difficult part of squiding for beginners is identifying a squid that has attached momentarily to you jig. So perhaps in that sense the floating jigs will be more effective for them. I know that having a GoPro on your line prevents more aggressive upwards jigging... But that really IMO is a requirement for effective use of the weighted jigs. Interesting video regardless. I might throw a floating one on next time above my weighted jig to see how effective they are for my own eyes, haha.
I totally agree. The technique with weighed jigs is extremely important. I've caught more squid than I can hope to count using them. It's not that they're not effective, you just have to be very quick, have a good feel for what a squid hit feels like, and, like you said, maintain the tension while reeling up. The floating jigs are just more forgiving and don't require as much technique is why I would recommend them for beginners, but also they're my favorite because they just catch everything that even thinks about hitting. The weight of the GoPro definitely hindered my ability to feel squid hits and proper jigging, but I loved being able to see just how little time you have to react to a squid with the weighted vs the ridiculously long time the squid was stuck on with the floating jigs lol. You'll have to let me know how it goes for you if you test it out :)
No don't furiously reel, normal steady reel is safer because somethimes they only hook with one tentacle and it can snap. Also with normal reel you can hook another squid on the way up
Amazing video..i've watched so manny times...can you pls explain how did you attach go pro on main line and can you watch everything on your mobile app while you fishing so you can see when the squid strikes or only when you pull go pro out of the water..
1:00, Hi, one of my favorite methods to use is snag the squids on the surface and the fact that the hooks are wide, they’re easier to snag. I want you to try one of my methods and sharing it out. Thanks 😊
This is my intro to this in any way whatsoever lol, as I got curious about how my calamari gets to the plate lol 😂. Super weird experience but wow enlightening and fascinating, thanks for this!
Thanks so much! For flounder, I usually drift and jig along the bottom with a soft plastic grub on a 1 or 1.5 oz jig head and tip the hook with a small strip of squid.
@@simonnissen5826 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 OMG yes, the camera mount would totally work for flounder. I keep thinking about taking it out on the Nisqually Flats for just that but haven't gotten around to it yet!
Have you done a comparison between these floating jigs and the double hook inline? I wonder if the double hook matters could explain the difference. Also? Could you try a bottom inline and a floating top? (Only been out a couple times so not a pro at all)
I thought about that afterwards. I don't have any of the double hook weighted inline ones so I don't have video of that but yeah it could make a difference. However, I don't think it would make them as effective as the Yo-Zuri even with double hooks because the swivel action of the Yo-Zuri on the loops is what prevents the squid from using leverage to twist off. They're just built very differently. I'll have to do another test with more gear at some point though.
@@wannafishalure Yeah, same here. I'm not sure when I'll get out again this season, if at all. I just subscribed to your channel. I'll be the first to get all excited if you do get some comparison underwater footage this season. That would be very cool! I love nerding out on fish gear and videos lol.
@@SeaWolfFishing Appreciate the thoughts and look forward to more videos. Love the more scientific approach to looking at gear! May have to look at getting some floating jigs!
I don't know if this is an equal test. The weighted jigs are single row of hooks, floating are 2 rows. That may be the difference. How hard was that squid to get off the Otari? But it does possibly show that the 2 rows of are better than 1.
That's a good idea Toni. I'd love to include some double hook weighted body jigs in another comparison! That could be a factor but I also think it would never be a truly equal test since the lures are so different in their design. The intent of the video was really just to compare the two most common types I see out there, but yeah it would be better with adding that third type. The double row hook weighted jigs may be more effective than the single row hook weighted jigs. I don't have any doubles though so I couldn't get video of that. The squid on the weighted hooks literally fall off the jigs when I tip them into my bucket because they're not really well hooked but the squid on the Yo-Zuri floating hooks take a lot of shaking and sometimes prying to get off the hooks. I think the design of the swivel on the Yo-Zuri is what makes them most effective since it prevents the squid from getting any leverage when they spin. Hopefully I'll get some double hook weighted body jigs to compare all three types at some point! I'd love to see some video of this. Have you done any comparison work with the double hook weighted jigs?
@@SeaWolfFishing No they never seemed to produce like the single row. I thought if I go out again I might try. I have seen them touch them (my jigs) and leave and then others, like I saw in your video, that touch it repeatedly. My thoughts on the weightless ones you use id they feel it give so they think it can be carried away. Whereas, the weighted ones have resistance so they aren't as enticing. Just a thought.
@@wannafishalure I think you're on to something there. The behavior of the floating jigs definitely mimicks bait fish behavior much more and is likely more attractive to begin with.
awesome! i usually don't like underwater fishing footage, but this was actually really cool, and it confirms what i have always thought about how squid strike. im working on some new lures, and this has given me some ideas i want to tryout right now. thanks for the awesome vid, you got my sub
Yeah, it's pretty cool! This species (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doryteuthis_opalescens ) are almost always in schools as opposed to some more solitary species around the world.
How come squid rigs and jigs do not have barbed hooks or barbless conventional curved hooks? Does the squid feel it ? Great observation and understanding of how the squid reacts to various jigs by videoing underwater!!
@@SeaWolfFishingthank you so much...but we are here now in middle east country...im here in oman now,i cannot go back to my country because of pandemic...but its ok our world will be ok soon...😊🙏 god bless us...please continue to make video because i really enjoy to watch😁👍
Thanks for the great video from a newbe here in Seattle. Can you say when is the beginning and end of the "season" at the Point Defiance area your fishing? Please keep the videos coming !
This was filmed during the daytime, about mid-morning. The footage is from about 70 feet depth below the surface so it is a little dark down there. The lures all have glow in the dark properties.
We use lights too for nighttime squid fishing but can also catch them during the daytime without lights when the season is good. I've got a few more months before squid season gets going again here.
Im from up in Bellingham wa, and the only peir we have to fish from local is pretty shallow water, so I have yet to catch my first squid, lol. Lots of crab, flounder and kelp greenlings though.
Fascinating footage. I’ve been using my own floating rigs/paternoster rig for years here in Oz squiding in 50-70 foot of dark water. I find slow movement vertically and/or horizontally helps hook up rate and footage illustrates why.
Thanks so much! I found the same thing. The floating lures really only require slow movements. I'd love to make my own rigs at some point! Do you have any advice on that?
SeaWolf Fishing Really easy. Google dropper loops and/ or paternoster rigs. Then get a few feet of 8-10 lb fluorocarbon and tie three x three inch dropper loops a foot apart for your jigs and the sinker on the bottom. They don’t need to be fancy or strong for squid.
That sea bed and water colour reminds me of freediving for scallops near Brixham in England. Nice video and very informative! Looking forward to the next one.
the ink and struggling scares away the rest of the flock . you have to reel them up fast . but very nice footage , always wanted to see what these buggers are doing down there
You're totally right. The ink/struggle does affect the other squid in the vicinity. The only reason I didn't reel these up fast is because the weight of the GoPro on my line meant that I couldn't feel the squid hits like I would without that added weight. The underwater footage was the goal instead of just getting squid for this video. Thanks for watching!
@@SeaWolfFishing thank you i realy enjoyed watching . i'm catching them in the eastern side of the mediteranian , i think we have 2 species plus 1 specie of cuttlefish , so far so good this year
@@SeaWolfFishing Awesome, thanks. We started with kayak fishing. Just got into ice fishing. We have leanred a lot from the UA-cam community - it has been fantastic for us so far. Looking forward to catching up on some of your older videos.
I just returned to Eastern WA from my first attempt at squid fishing and can't wait to get back next season! It was great fun, except for the part of spending a good portion of time untangling leaders from squid jig hooks. Thanks to this excellent video, I'll be better prepared next Fall. One thing I did discover and would like to pass on is that using a piece of paper towel between your fingers and the squid makes removing the skin a lot easier. Thanks, and keep up the good work!
It's such a fun fishery! Hope next season is phenomenal for you :) Thanks for the paper towel tip! That skin does get pretty slimy and difficult to remove lol.
@@koijigger5460 I attach the gopro to my fishing line using a helmet extension arm. This accessory keeps the gopro in line and I angle it down with the pivot screws that hold it all together. Here's a video showing how to do it if you're interested. Hope it helps! ua-cam.com/video/KdpCtxeI-po/v-deo.html
Really helpful video! I live in Tacoma and this got me interested in squidding last season. I've only been fishing for the last 3 years and your advice about floating vs traditional jigs helped me catch a ton of squid. Thanks a lot.
@@hectorg012345 They're all over the sound, from Neah Bay down to Olympia. How many depends on the time of year. They move around a lot following bait and moving into spawning areas. I'm usually fishing spots with depths of 20 to 100 feet, but find most in the 40-80 foot range.

Yes they are! They're pretty spectacular and I love the patterns/colors.
I've only been using those BM Otori jigs but looks like the squid get stuck on those yozuri jigs a lot better. Thank you for sharing this!

@@SeaWolfFishing how far up do they go? I work on a ship that docks at the Blair waterway. And what depth do you usually find them at?
@@hectorg012345 They're all over the sound, from Neah Bay down to Olympia. How many depends on the time of year. They move around a lot following bait and moving into spawning areas. I'm usually fishing spots with depths of 20 to 100 feet, but find most in the 40-80 foot range.
Nice share 👍
Thanks so much!
Good luck for you brow ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much for watching! Good luck to you too in your squid fishing :)

Apollo seawood works great. I will have to try tying a swivel on it. Thanks.
Thanks for the tip! I haven't tried that lure. I'll have to look into them :)
