I only did a few times last year, so no expert. If you use a small painted or anodized jig, like a 1 or 2 oz Gibbs minnow (barbless treble) you can catch a salmon while jigging for squid.Just heading to Ukee and want to try mooching squid. Question do most people bounce bottom or use a float. How deep of water and how deep off a float? I have probably bought 10 different types of squid jigs so hope one works. Do you catch the squid the night before or during the day? How long will they live in a bucket?
Live is good, but the day old dead ones flutter around better some say.
Float works to spread gear and vary depth with a bobber stop. Mooch near bottom. 25-70 feet. Can get crowded, give the guides room to work and don't plug up obvious trolling tacks.
