An underwater battle between a Squid and a jig

The southern calamari, Sepioteuthis australis, is the most common and sought after species of squid in New Zealand and Australia.

If a squid is hungry and hunting for food, they will go for most things (small fish, prawns etc) that come within grabbing distance. However, if they’re not hungry, they need to be visually attracted to entice them to feed.
