anthman Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 What a fantastic haul! What's your technique, if you don't mind sharing? I often driven by Dover heights and pondered squidding but not sure - looks dicey getting close to rocks, controlling speed to get jigs deep enough etc...

Work the shoals, jig aggressively and persist until you find them. Once you do repeat the drift and you should do well. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck. thanks! what do you look for on the sounder (weed? and what depth do you targert). do you put a sinker on the jigs to get them down there quicker?

I'm also keen to hear @danielsydney's reply for this also @anthman. Also, any tips for cleaning squid ink off a painted rear section of aluminium boat, I've left some there for a while now and it's pretty well stuck on! We've been working paternoster rigs with two smaller jigs in the lake here for arrows, works well for that smaller variety and can adjust the sinker for windier/faster drifts. Haven't tried it offshore for green eyes, but am keen to try it out. More info here on this style of rig: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
