I have seen Mitchs system work fist hand and no question it works and dam fine,remember an elephant will eat a peanut ! I came from the school of the bigger the bait the bigger the fish,I have opened up 300 lbers and saw squid no bigger than your little finger.
Although I caught 2 last night on squid as long as your arm.I still had small ones out to.
Just rember keep it simple,Its only complacated as you make it,You dont hafta have a gold reel and a $40 light and a $7 squid,It is possible to use a star drag reel $1 cylume stick.and a $3 dollar box of squid
