Easy Squid Rigging

Ah, squid ----- that favorite prey of so many game fish. Rigging the squishy cephalopods, however, is not so easy ------- until now. Introducing the Squid Rig, a clever device that makes rigging squid a snap. Simply insert the stainless-steel plate inside the squid’s body until the pointed end protrudes from the tip of the mantle, clip it to a line, and you’re ready to fish. The Squid Rig comes rigged with a Mustad single hook, and is available in small (for squid up to 6”), medium (7-12”), and large (12-16”). According to testimonials from fisherman, the Squid Rig tracks well at three to five knots and has taken everything from sailfish and tuna to striped bass and salmon. B&L Designs, 3706 N.
