How to catch Squid "Part 1" - SHIMANO FISHING

[@FishenBenny]

Hi... Sorry... It's been a while since I posted this. It was taken back when we were new to squid fishing. I think that was our second trip... I handle squid a whole lot differently these days. I was a full-on hack back then. These days on a good winters afternoon just before sunset the two of us can bag out in an hour in that same spot but now we drift and cast jigs and use a net. Species is Southern Calamari which is the best squid to eat imo. For those who commented on humane killing methods, I stick a filleting knife through the head right between the eyes. I didn't put that in the video because people don't like to see it but I guess you're damned if you don't and you're damned if you do. This was taken in 4m of water off Mount Eliza over a weed bed. Thanks for the nice comments!

*This thing is really neat **enjoyable.fishing** recommend and i've gotten a few people commenting about it when they see me pull it out. Fits nicely in my back pack.*

Great video guys, I'm 52 and love squid but was never taught. I live by lake Illawarra nsw, so happy for any advice. Thanks

[@themuntstick]

nice technique i usually just scream at them til they die

[@therealnoodles7638]

i just stare at them till they die from anxiety

[@bartender6965]

I reel them in so fast that they drown..........wait that makes no sense

[@adamgrimsley2900]

That's the official Shimano way

[@sebastiantufigno6955]

When is the best time and season ?

[@seanerowsell9827]

It's nice to see how people catch squid in different parts of the world. I grew up catching squid and I've always enjoyed it so much. You may enjoy my channel. I have a couple of videos of how we catch and clean squid in Newfoundland. Seane Rowsell

That's not putting it to sleep. You basically just snapped its spinal cord, the part that is controlling the pigmentation in its mantle as well as its escape reflex. Unfortunately snapping that nerve does not do anything to kill or anesthetize the animal. The nerves you broke are highly specialized organs that only serve to facilitate the squids reflexes. It does nothing in terms of affecting the sensory perception of the squid. Not saying they perceive pain, I can't be sure, they're invertebrates so their behaviors and conscious aren't well understood. I'd just like to clarify that it takes a bit more to kill the squid. Dropping it in a bucket of icy fresh water will work, or smacking it between the eyes with something blunt.

[@porkcheeks]

+monkapotamous1 i think sleep is a euphemism for kill here. Do you have a better method? They appear to have a brain between their eyes, perhaps a squid billy or stab to destroy the brain. I haven't tried for squid but when I catch one I'd like to know how best to kill it.

[@AttilaThebung]

+monkapotamous1 Jam a small spike right between the eyes.

[@MichaelBurt13]

+AnthonyH Anthony is correct. Look up IKI JIME.

[@FishenBenny]

I stick a fillet knife through the head right between the eyes. I didn't do it on the video though.

[@tysonsfishingandcamping5495]

you can karate chop them in the head and they die instantly

[@ronaldupchurch9752]

Wow just seeing this out of the box kzbin.infoUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

[@TropicalZooms]

Great video. Thanks for the tips. I’m keen to give it a go. 😃🐟🐟🐟👍

[@michwas7270]

Like the jigging action wonder if you guys loose any possible bites/strikes with your method I loose a fewvso ill have a crack at yours

[@FishenBenny]

Back when we did it this way we lost plenty! Have more success drifting with jigs these days!

[@bretleversha]

What is your favourite colour that got the first squid? Ty

[@gtziortzis]

[@Farmer2492]

Great video can you catch squid any where around port Philip bay

[@TimVincent222]

Port Phillip bay has some of the best squid fishing.

[@Farmer2492]

Thank you

[@sumnerbob2254]

can jigs be used to catch fish to ?

[@ShimanoAustralia]

Hi, it may happen but rarely so. Squid jigs are generally used only to catch squid with the by-catch of cuttlefish and octopus.

[@sumnerbob2254]

Hey,thx for the comment now i know thx.

[@MsPussyLiquor]

A friend of mine caught a flathead on a squid jig once (not intentionally), it's not recommended as the fish destroys the crown hooks.

[@sumnerbob2254]

Oh. Wow by the way Thx for sharing :)

[@00107618]

agreed, thanks for the tip. new to me. will try it next time

[@trilxpandaz1664]

What kilo line do you need?

[@ERAN503]

that tip is really helpful, thanks

[@shanesemckie2527]

Thank you 😘

[@rachaeldoel5357]

I just started fishing for squid at a place called Sussex Intel and my and pop go near the rock with the motor running

[@psychepass]

Basically like a judo chop at the back of the neck

[@BaMenace]

You only need to karate chop them at that junction and they are put to rest. Don't need to dig it fingers in.

[@markstammers8404]

[@dhuanabsa774]

The squid gave silent screams when squeezed behind the head.

[@tomazmole7847]

Shimano is the best.

[@markwhitehead67]

cool video didn't know that about how to 'put them to sleep'

[@brianheidel4550]

what kind of squid are those ?

[@JDAWG696]

Southern Calamari. Diet of fish and people in the southern states of Australia

[@cliftonfrederick2478]

I like keep it live.

[@gyalcin7374]

wow he litterally snapped the soul out of that squid. that hit me

[@oakland002]

Funny it's shimano video and the other guy have a huge G loomis logo shirt

[@justinharrell8737]

Actually it tastes better fresh as sashimi still wriggling.

[@nicholasmontenegro938]

can you catch me one

[@28blink]

great technique for putting to sleep, i will use it rather than prodding; thanks

[@FishnMates]

great tip for putting them asleep.

[@borkjohnsen1924]

I'm so glad to see people killing these animals in a quick and painless way!

[@wilvermirandaherrera2308]

Mucha blablabla

[@surfinglion2974]

Wrong way to land and handle squid.

[@FishenBenny]

This was my second squid fishing trip when I was still a hack. We do it a whole lot different these days. Thanks for the feedback tho!

[@joelcr250]
