Is squid a good bait for pier fishing?
Jerome-092 asked:
I’ve been fishing at the pier for some time now. I used a sabiki rig and shrimp for bait. I’ve decided to use squid instead of shrimp, just to see if there is a difference. I usually catch mackerel, and rarely calico bass (I live in southern California). And will I catch any halibut with dead squid on a halibut rig? If not, what’s the best way?

Squid is good, though sabiki jigs work just as good. CandyGirl

At Ventura it works for both little fish and sharks but use the little fish as bait for sharks and it works better than squid. slept on
