If anything they would make a bloody good teaser for kingies could run one of these off a rod rigger slow trolled with a livie running off the corner nearby. If they don’t want the chasebait squid they may take a liking to the real thing. They would at least help bringing fish up.

For me the amount of money I spend on lures etc this would be a relatively small investment.

What colour squid jig do you reckon would work for kingies.?
And would you use a dropshit rig.?
Not sure about the colour but I think the dipshit rig might be more up your alley
Yeah, either That, or the variant dumbshit rig.
What about a clear jig, and cut the barbs off so it doesn't snag, would that work.?
That could work, need to make sure it’s a high quality clear jig because if they can see it it’ll spook them

I can't see these working any better than the old school rubber squid baits that have been used in the heads for the past who knows how many years..
