yes..
Squid flies for Bass over many seasons.
Also, live squid late season can be very good.

I think without being able to read Japanese it is difficult to understand exactly how the trace works. I have slightly different take on how it works and was trying to explain it to Myfish earlier today. My interpretation is that there is some sort of trace attached to your mainline, likely flourocarbon, not sure how long. Then a worm weight pointed end facing up the line is threaded on the leader, glass bead, another worm weight pointed end facing the opposite way, then a small clip to attach the lure. I think it works by trapping the glass bead between the hollow ends of the two worm weights which effectively creates a rattle. All of this is free to slide above the clip. The reason for this is that the whole lot can be twitched along the bottom creating little puffs of sand/mud and a clicking noise. If you allow some slack line then the lure will sit head ands claws up. In some places this is deliberately intended to mimic a fiddler crab in defensive stance. The rig is a variation of a Texas rig and used with a plug instead of soft plastic but likely could be used with either.Tunny said:The rig basically is two weights with a glass bead between them then a small swivel. To this a short leader is attached and the lure added.
It keeps the lure hard on the bottom, where it can be SLOWLY worked along.
I will try and find a diagram which will explain it better.
