[@SkullnBonekayakfishingUK]

Looking forward to a bit of this on the kayak soon. It's just a matter of waiting for them to come in now. 👍

[@PixelGraal]

i am amazed how fishing is so exiting it could be a freetime hobby i like how lures was made for fishes are they acually bite it

[@MrDanieljanes]

So many views yet still only 500 subs. that's sucks. iv subed! good video.

[@simonbradley2809]

Thanks Dan ... I'm still out trying for them ... a handful of squidlets inshore (each around 250 to 300g) on last outing

Beautiful video well done..I subscribed to your channel

[@simonbradley2809]

Thanks for the sub & glad you like my video - It was a lot of work to put together but hopefully may help others in squid fishing, or in research on cephalopod intelligence/behaviour .

Hi , very nice video , did this EGL lure work day and night please ?

[@simonbradley2809]

Hi & Thank You ... It took a lot to put this video together. Yes I found that EGI lures worked both day and night .... At night they worked both with no extra illumination, and also with Green Light Hydraglow hung at around 20 foot under my boat. Wishing you the very best of luck in squid hunting ... I was out just yesterday picking up squid & cuttlefish - Though I was competing with a small (around 4 1/2 foot) tuna which was also fishing in. the shallows here off the Cornish Coast !

Whats the best technique to catch squid, and whats the best color, because every night we are doing catching squids around the ship at night

[@simonbradley2809]

Hi .... I use short super bendy rods, but you don't need one to fish for squid. .... Off a boat you can use a spool of stretchy monofilament fishing line (I use 20lb Asso Hardskin). Tie on a single jig and throw over the side letting it freely spool away so that it falls 'naturally' through the water column and then leave it sat around the bottom before doing a slow retrieve back to the boat. I've tied jigs straight onto mono , but I prefer 20lb mono to around 14lb fluorocarbon leader. If you have a squid on particularly a handline, go gently on pulling it back up, but keep tension steady all the way. Often the tide dictates adding weight (I typically go for a little 0.5oz pear shaped sinker tied either a couple of feet up the line from the jig or on about 1 1/2 foot of 14lb mono tied onto the jig at the tie on - nose).... If you are fishing deeper than say 50 foot or if you are in a spot beset by tide rips you may need to go for a lead to suit eg 6oz with a boom & jig tied onto mono or fluro on the end of that. Colour wise first drop on a single jig at night I'd go for a red bright red/pink jig I chose to fish 4 rods at the same time & I go for a red based one, a white based one, a more natural Greeny Brown, and lastly any other one that takes my fancy. I hope this may help you and others out there giving it a go ... Happy fishing :)

[@laurenceolivier6509]

thanks for the info.

[@simonbradley2809]

I use jigs mainly from Japan & Australia . I have found Yamashita Live Search jigs to be around the best I have used, but there are terrific jigs from France and Croatia available in the UK ... locally even at Lizard Tackle and Bait ! They all work & they all have their individual benefits. Best advice I can give is to try the best you can ... They all catch but the better made stand up to repeated & prolonged use and abuse season on season. If fishing over rough grabby ground try float fishing a single jig over the top of it, or use a lead on lighter mono tied on beneath your jig so you lose that rather than your lure.

[@laurenceolivier6509]

can you catch squid in day time?

[@simonbradley2809]

@@laurenceolivier6509 Absolutely ... had 5 small squid inshore all daytime fishing one day last week.

[@manrod4871]

Have you catch some in shallow waters like inshore waters?

[@simonbradley2809]

Absolutely - Most I have are in between 25 and 45 feet of water - All inshore waters

Can i see real color of your lure for squid in photo plss

[@simonbradley2809]

Simon Bradley Hi Anlon ... I use a mix of colours, jig sizes, and makes (though quality lures way outfished cheapies). Usually for first drop of a session I'll go for a red based one, a white based one, a more natural Greeny Brown, and lastly any other one that takes my fancy. Sorry for delay in my admin & hope this may help you or anyone else out there trying for squid, cuttlefish, or octopus.

Can you believe back in the 1960s/70s we could catch squid with a peeled potato on a jag?

[@botyokyok9623]

Nice..what deep is the spot.?

[@simonbradley2809]

Hi - This was over reef / rough ground at around no more than 25 feet deep (rising to 15 feet with some of the rocks). Glad you found my little video Fishing for squid / cuttle / octo's is an absolute passion for me & I wanted to see how they reacted to differing lures & lure presentations.

[@botyokyok9623]

@@simonbradley2809 ok sir copy..thank you verry much.. i plan to go offshore egi fishing but, no idea on what deep or best spot for offshore egi fishing..

[@simonbradley2809]

@@botyokyok9623 If UK try early Winter offshore wrecks .... Or any deepwater mark where normal fish lures are getting gently pulled down without any hook up ... as they just might be squid. V V best of luck.

[@eternalfitness9470]

Wow amazing footage!! Could u please share ur underwater camera setup?

[@simonbradley2809]

Thank You - ... Most of the footage was with a Water Wolf underwater camera. I tied camera to heavy braid line so camera looking straight down - Then around a foot of very stretchy mono, swivel, then around 2 foot of flurocarbon tied direct to a single jig. One camera was destroyed by an octopus who locked onto the camera & twisted/pulled the o ring sealed end cap clean off. I filmed over the course of a number of day & night sessions. At night for filming (& to attract bait fish - & predators) I use Hydro Glow underwater lighting (green light). I am still catching inshore cephalopods (now in PZ80 SHRIMPY) - Aiming this year to catch squid inshore every month of the year.

[@eternalfitness9470]

@@simonbradley2809 thats v cool! Since being introduced to squid fishing last autumn, i have been obsessive in my squidding adventures lol. Mainly at Brighton marina. I have a go pro and im looking for a way to mount it onto the fishing line to get some underwater shots. Btw Cronwall is amazing and ur videos are brilliant. Keep putting them up :)

[@simonbradley2809]

@@eternalfitness9470 I often mount my Go Pro on the end of my long handled landing net (I clamp it on the end of the pole tilted slightly upwards) .... I turn on whilst bringing squid in & have been rewarded with great footage whilst trying to draw the squid into my landing net. Thank you for your kind words ... yes Cornwall is awesome & has some stunning fish in often crystal clear water. I'd heard Brighton was popular for squid fishing off the shore ... I've often had squid on jig worked off a float over inshore reef marks.

[@simonbradley2809]

Hi ... picking up decent sized squid inshore every few days at the moment (around 750g) . If you aren't yet trying for them it may be worth a go up your way :)
