Squid hit a number of jigs. Yo Zuri's are good but expensive. Tear drop jigs work too, less expensive but aren't always the most effective. That one in the pic hit on a small home made jig that's really deadly in the fall (it's a local RI/BI design).
In other parts of the world, however, big squid hit full size jigs. For example, in the Sea of Cortez the Humbolt squid regularly hit big diamond style jigs!
Gus - Try inside large harbors at night, especially near the mouth of the harbor. Fish around dock lights. Or use your own bright light is you can.
ps- When unhooking the squid be careful of the mouth. They have a very SHARP and POWERFUL beak (like a Parrot) and can really do some damage if given the chance!
