I make mine the same way ..... but I add a lumo bead to stop the rubber squid popping down to far, it also adds a bit of body to the head of the squid I also use a piece of copper wire to pull the cord through everything , put a little hook in the wire .. Enjoying the content !! Stay Safe !!!
Nice and basic way to save some money and make the lengths and hooks to personal preference. I usually just turn the squid a bit inside out rolling it on my finger. Great vid john
Feed a wire loop or hook down through the nose of the skirt to pull the assist through. Makes it heaps easier. You can also keep the holes in the skirt nice and small and tight.
😂 I just love instructional videos that are:
-Out of focus
-Hands block and obscure the knot
-Knot is out of frame
Well done!
Best tutorial on UA-cam, cheers

Yep I do that if I have made the hole a tad small to thread it through. It's simple easy and satisfying hey!
Great video thanks 👍

Nice one will give it a try

can this , without squid skirt, be used for stickbait ? thanks
A swinging assist hook, sure can. Usually keep the length shorter.
