How To Use A Squid As Bait

By Maria Cooper


Fishing can either be both a hobby and a means of occupation. When it comes to such activity, fishers know how important the role of baits can be especially when using hook. The stuff that are placed in there are the main thing that will determine how many fishes can be trapped and can one bring home. That is the reason why there is no such thing as not preparing and not putting an effort to the baits because that sure is essential. There are many foods that can used for this, worms, bread but the best one would always be the frozen squid bait North Carolina as it looks really natural down below making the fish gather near it.

And it is not even as simple as it may seem because there are supposed to be art in trying to have the whole thing assembled. When done properly then, there is really a huge difference in terms of numbers of fishes that will go for it. They can also be a little suspicious as they see something that does not look right like they may think it could be just garbage or something.

Sometimes, people may really think that using squid as bait is too much because this is not cheap and it can be eaten. But, out of everything this actually is one that stays to where it is nailed longer. There are many fishes below and it also has the big possibility of attracting the large ones which is the main goal when fishing.

For those who are not used to baiting squids, there are three ways of possibly doing that. This is classified by the sections being used. The first one will be whole squids and then the last two are both half the only difference is that the other one is using the head section while the other would be the tail.

First thing to do is go through the pointy end of squids then thread hook in it and pull it through. If the squid is kind of big then just to add a little force in it, thread it once more around the middle part. Next step would be rolling those hooks in at the very top of mantle.

After doing that step, make sure that the barb would really come out of the head from that squid. When it does, add a little hard bit at the eyes part mainly on the middle of that two tiny eyes so it will float perfectly down in the water without making it really look like a bait for the fishes. It will really somehow look as if it is alive.

The second one is the tail section. So cutting this into is pretty much the very first step. The angle preferred is right above the part of mantle and nothing more than two centimeters. Because it will look kind of weird and it does not look right, do a little trick in it. Cut tiny slots on it so it can be something that would seem as tentacles.

Have the hook threaded at the upper most part of mantle and follow that line through. Roll the hook at its bottom half and expose those barb and hook. Straighten the line then tie it perfectly in half hitch for more secure bait.

The last one which is head section would need taking the head. Trace the line and tie all together so it will not rip off then hook it as well. Roll the hook through the bottom end of mantle up until its head and out between the eyes. This would hold everything together while it floats under water.
