Squid
Squid As we become more familiar with Asian cuisine, the status of squid, or calamari, has grown from being good only as bait to a respected and enjoyed table fish.
When fishing it is not uncommon for anglers to experience a series of light taps on their lines; attacks on the bait that prove difficult to turn into hook ups. Many blame the attention of smaller fish for their bad fortune, but more often than not it will be squid attacking the offering. Change the conventional hooks or soft bait for a squid jig and see what happens!
