Squid jigs, also known as squid lures, are specially designed fishing lures used to catch squid. Instead of hooks, squid jigs use sharp prongs to hold the squid safely once it grabs the lure. This makes squid jigs very effective and easy to fish with.
In Australia, squid are commonly found around jetties, reefs, weed beds and harbour areas. Squid jigs are built to sink slowly and move smoothly, copying the look of small baitfish or prawns — the squid’s natural food.
These squid lures can be used by casting and slowly retrieving, or by letting them sink and gently lifting the rod. You don’t need special skills or heavy gear, making squid jigs a great option for beginners, families and casual anglers.
Our range of squid jigs is suitable for targeting popular Australian squid species and works well in both day and night fishing. If you want a simple and reliable way to catch squid, squid jigs are the right choice.
