Squid can be used whole on gang hooks for larger snapper. Though when it comes to targeting King George Whiting, in particular, its best to piece them into strips. Before cutting them into strips we’ll remove the head and the spine of the body. Simply pull these apart with your hands.
Once the head and spine have been removed we’ll slice the main body vertically down the middle to create two halves. From these halves, we’ll then cut them into strips.
Once the strips have been prepared I like to then store them into a plastic container for ease of use while fishing. Keep the bait fresh by storing into an esky filled with ice or an iceblock.
