Eging fishing - Cuttlefish and squid

Eging is the fishing of squid and cuttlefish. This sea fishing technique is mainly practised in harbours and occasionally by boat. Fishing for cephalopods requires the use of natural baits, jigs or calamari. This lure has an original shape and is armed with a hook basket on which the cuttlefish clings.

Rods, reels and accessories for eging fishing

Eging is a sea fishing technique for cuttlefish and squid. It therefore requires salt-resistant sea fishing equipment. Reels, rods and accessories such as pliers, fluorocarbons and nylons are all suitable for fishing for these unusual fish.

Cuttlefish fishing with squid jig or calamari fishing is a technique that consists of accompanying the descent and reeling in the lure slowly. To ensure a good accompaniment, it is important to have a long enough rod to follow the descent of the lure and feel the bites.

Jigs, the lures for fishing for cuttlefish and squid

Jigs are hard lures in the shape of a shrimp that are very popular for fishing for cephalopods. They come in a variety of shapes and colours. Cephalopods feed both day and night. As a result, some lures have UV and phosphorescent colours for effective night fishing.

These lures are chosen according to the speed at which they dive. So you can opt for different speeds to fish more or less deep spots. Cuttlefish can be fished all year round. However, spring is the most productive time of year. At this time of year, they come close to the coast and ports.
