Where an egi is weighted to dart and fall, a floating sutte carries no lead: it lifts, sits nose-up and hangs in the water column, which is exactly what makes it useful as the upper bait on a squid rig. Fished above a lead sutte, an ika-metal jig or a sinker, it stands out from the mainline instead of collapsing onto it, and stays presented at the depth you set while the weight below does the work. The 81 mm body carries a luminous finish and a Y2 twin-crown hook, and the nose ring at the head lets you clip on an extra weight, a light stick or a second bait so the same jig can be re-rigged for different depths. Supplied two per pack in size 2.5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFloating (non-weighted) sutte body, 81 mm, size 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNose ring at the head for attaching added weight, a light stick or a dropper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eY2 twin-crown hook arrangement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuminous and glow colour finishes for night and deep water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pieces per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive colour codes: L1, L6, L11, LA1, LRY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRig it above the weight\u003c\/strong\u003e — Tie it on a short dropper 30–60 cm above a lead sutte, metal jig or sinker.

The weight anchors the depth and the floater hovers there. If nothing comes, change the count rather than the jig.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLift, stop, hang\u003c\/strong\u003e — Raise the rod slowly through a metre, then hold dead still for five to ten seconds. The stall is the presentation; squid grab a stationary floating bait far more often than a moving one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharge the glow\u003c\/strong\u003e — Hold a torch on the luminous panels for a few seconds before each drop, and fish the shaded edge of a boat light rather than the bright centre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRead the line, do not strike\u003c\/strong\u003e — A squid hugs the bait with its arms. When the line goes slack, ticks or drifts, sweep smoothly into the weight and wind under constant tension — pumping puts in slack and the squid lets go.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTarget Species By Region\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoutheast Asia\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bigfin reef squid (sotong torak) and cuttlefish (sotong katak) on candat sotong trips off Terengganu, Johor and the Indonesian islands, rigged above a lead sutte under the boat lights.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNorth America\u003c\/strong\u003e — Market squid on lit California piers and harbours, fished as the upper bait on a two- or three-branch squid rig worked down the pilings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJapan \u0026amp; East Asia\u003c\/strong\u003e — Standard uki-sutte use in ika-metal and oma-rig fishing for kensaki-ika and yariika, and on traditional multi-bait squid rigs in Korea and Taiwan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAustralia, Middle East \u0026amp; Europe\u003c\/strong\u003e — Southern calamari and cuttlefish over seagrass and reef edges in southern Australia, and European squid on Mediterranean and Atlantic night marks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHook\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePack\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA1160\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e81 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloating sutte with nose ring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eY2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 pcs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable colours: L1, L6, L11, LA1, LRY.
