How to Squid Fish

From Martinetti, a US manufacturer of quality squid jigs:

Every location can be unique in its own way when it comes to choosing sizes and/or colors. For example: in the state of Washington the squid is often very small and can only be caught using small size jigs. That is why we came up with a brand new line of small jigs size 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0. Our squid jigs are shown to work very good on all the piers along downtown Seattle area such as Pier 86, 69, west Seattle, Everett, Redondo Beach Pier and Tacoma. Using only big size jigs you are limiting your self to the bigger squid only. Every squid no matter how big or small will be tempted by a small squid jig. Smaller squid is better bait and tastier too.

Understanding different colors and sizes can play big roll in catching squid in big numbers. You have to experiment with the colors to determine which one works the best. Some anglers like to try 3 or 4 different colors on the same line at the same time so they can determine which color works the best at that particular location or at that particular time. One day you might be using only pink but another day green and so on. So, next time you go fishing make sure you have plenty of different colors and sizes in your tackle box. The most popular colors are Pink, Blue, Green and Orange.

Squid likes to eat a lot. That is why you can expect to catch them almost any time of the day. However at night and early mornings with the help of strong light you can expect to catch a lot more. If you don't have a light, position your self right next to the strongest pier lighting.
