It's kinda hard to explain over text. But it will come down to: 1) knowing the spot's depth and your EGI's sink rate. OR by counting down e.g. Spot A is 8 seconds of sink time for a 4.0 m/s EGI. Of course you would need to know the depth by trying out different sink times and by maybe getting stuck. 2) observing the line to see if there is slack or still being pulled from a falling egi (hard to explain) or the ripple from line from the EGI sinking. Also by the feel from the rod under a tensioned line. 3) or by giving an educated guess using the 2 factors above. These are best learnt by experience and time out eging as you need to experience it to understand and learn how to read the line signals. Hope it helps, this one is a bit hard to explain.
Hi, I would say a 6-7 foot leader would be good but it ultimately depends on your rod length. A snap is best used with an egi to impart a better action, do omit a rolling swivel if you can and use a snap that isn't ridiculously small or large. You can buy purpose built egi snap/swivels for eging but we just use generic duo lock snaps for eging.
Generally speaking, no it won't matter, you will still be able to catch squid But you would have an easier/more productive time and have more fun doing it using the right line or tackle... Good luck!
As long as you are confident in the spot during the day, I am sure you will hook onto some squid at night. Just make sure to fish the incoming/high/partial of the out going tide. I like to target squid when there’s little to no moonlight (this is where your glow in the dark or egis with a rattle will get the most hits)
Appreciate it, I am interested in using small egi's now, in Australia 2.5 and 3 are the most popular
Yeah, but over there you guys have bigger average sizes. Give it a go though.
Here is Sg, smaller egis are something of a necessity mate. Our squid don't really get that large.
Very good place my friend for fishing, greetings from Indonesian anglers
Perjalanan yang jauh menuju spot mancing ....perlengkapan pancing terbaik...salut kawan👍
Nice informative vid bro, any advice on where to get the egis from?
We usually get ours from either Ewaves Fishbyte or Lurehaven! World Fishing Center has a pretty wide selection of egis as well!
with a much smaller and lighter egi, and with the wind blowing, how did you know you touched the bottom?

Hi, can you kindly tell me how to get to MSP. I'm simply looking for a good place to fish. Thanks for the Tips.
Hey bro, what egi size would you recommend for Changi boat fishing tip run eging? what egi sinker to add?
Thank you, that is very informative.
really nice video. agree with the high risk and high reward. what is your snag rate like?
It depends... from 0 losses a session (super lucky) to 3 (average) or 5 to 6 (horrid day)... On this session on the video I think it was 3
Hi I’ve some beginners question like how long is the leader line and the egi lure attached to a swivel snap? Or tied to leader line?

@@IslandAnglersTV thanks for the tips I’ll use the duo snap. My rod is 6’ length
Thanks for sharing bro
Hopefully it helps ya!
Is reels with double handle a must to have? Or is there a specific set up for eging or we can use our normal Rod and reels
don’t really have the correct line for squid fishing but will it matter? Just wanna catch squid
Generally speaking, no it won't matter, you will still be able to catch squid

Nice video bro
I would try next week 💥
Good luck man!
Nice video bro.. !
is it easy to get snagged with an egi at MSP pier? I see alot of rocks below and lost a few few lures there before. Not egi yet.
If you go during a incoming tide/high tide you should be alright
thanks for the advice, I enjoy your chanel and the tips you give@@IslandAnglersTV
Nice Video bro
Thanks!
Where did u get the squid tool?
World fishing center!
@@IslandAnglersTV thanks
is it effective to do eging at night?
As long as you are confident in the spot during the day, I am sure you will hook onto some squid at night.
Just make sure to fish the incoming/high/partial of the out going tide.
I like to target squid when there’s little to no moonlight (this is where your glow in the dark or egis with a rattle will get the most hits)
Can I go eging with you
4:30 bro thats really fast if sinks 3.0-4.0 meters per second. Did u mean seconds per meter?😂
Yes, I did. Haha thanks for the correction!
Can u use UL rod for egi?
Yes!
Last time i went to msp i saw the guardian and greeted him but no catch 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh no! Gotta get him to bless your rod next time then haha
really small squids, would have let it go and let it grow bigger.
