① Selecting a natural color with clear water In areas with high water clarity, natural green and blue colors are effective. They help to disarm squid and appeal to them with a natural silhouette. This is especially suitable for sight fishing during the daytime. ② Utilizing appealing colors in muddy water In murky water, appealing colors such as pink and orange enhance visibility, making them more likely to catch squid's eye and thus increasing their attractiveness. Combining these with subtle wave action in murky water or at night can double your catch. ③ The advantage of luminous and UV-resistant colors at night and in deep water. For night fishing and deep-range fishing, luminous squid jigs made of phosphorescent material or those with UV colors emit light, creating a strong appeal to less active squid. They are particularly effective when used with a slow retrieve during slack tide. ④ Color rotation during twilight and tidal changes During dawn and dusk, and when the tide changes, it's important to alternate between natural and attention-grabbing colors to gauge the squid's reaction. The time when the tide starts to pick up is especially a great opportunity for a big catch. ⑤ Color strategies for squid jigs adapted to water depth and currents In shallow waters, translucent colors are advantageous, while in deeper waters, glow-in-the-dark or metallic colors are best. Considering the turbidity of the water and the amount of light, frequently switching between different jigs is key to increasing your catch. Combining them with a dropper is especially effective for targeting different depths. ⑥ Eging methods tailored to the target species The size, color, and sinking speed of the squid jig are adjusted for each target species, such as bigfin reef squid, cuttlefish, squirrel squid, swordtip squid, spear squid, and Japanese flying squid. By carefully observing the currents and water temperature changes, you can increase your chances of a successful catch. ⑦ A highly versatile squid jig that can also be used for octopus fishing.
