Anthony, Not everything Yo-Zuri makes is exported to the US. The pic I showed was the one in my box. The catalog pic is actually better (see below.
The web site where I bought this was from charkbait:

Yes these were intended for trolling tuna spreadar bars and I have seen similar ones too, but not nearly as real looking as these. I just figured I rig one for casting and give it a shot. Not a lot of science here, a simple egg sinker slides inside the squid and rigged with a treble. There is enough weight to cast it far enough. (it cast better then a live eel) Frankly I think it looks more like the real thing then any squid lure I have ever seen. It the water they perfect. I was thinking of stuffing the belly with a sponge loaded with scent to add further appeal.
I try a lot of odd ball schemes...I made a castable daisy-chain/ umbrella type rig of small fins minows. Looks like a small school of sand eels or spearing. It was messy to cast but it worked...Small blue fish attacked it like mad this summer. I was thinking of doing the same thing with 4-6" slugos for bass. Maybe next season....
good luck with your squid lures.
