Yo-Zuri Crystal Ultra Aurora Squid Jig 95mm 8.9g

Overview

The Yo-Zuri Squid Jig 95(S) is a sinking squid jig designed for anglers targeting squid from shore, harbour walls, piers, marina edges and light boat marks. The 95mm body size gives anglers a compact but highly practical presentation for UK and European squid fishing, particularly when squid are feeding around lights, structure or baitfish in the upper and middle water layers. Listings for the Yo-Zuri Crystal Ultra/Aurora 95mm model describe it as a 3.75 inch sinking squid jig, with an 8.9g / 5/16oz weight and a sink rate around 6 inches per second, making it useful for controlled countdown presentations.

The lure is designed around balance and presentation rather than brute casting weight. Retailer descriptions highlight a realistic lifelike swimming action, swivel line tie and sharp squid jig hooks, while other Yo-Zuri squid jig information references cloth body finishes, glow and UV attraction across the range. This makes the 95(S) a strong option for anglers who want a proven sinking squid jig that can be worked slowly, paused and counted down through the strike zone when squid are not feeding directly on the surface.

Perfect For

The Yo-Zuri Squid Jig 95(S) is ideal for anglers fishing harbour lights, piers, sea walls, marina mouths, estuaries and calm inshore marks where squid move in to hunt baitfish and prawns. Its 95mm size is a useful all-round profile for many squid fishing situations, offering enough presence to be seen while remaining manageable for smaller or more cautious squid. The sinking design allows anglers to fish it at different depths by counting it down before beginning a controlled retrieve.

It is particularly useful for eging-style fishing where the lure is worked with lifts, pauses and controlled drops. The slower sinking action keeps the jig in the strike zone for longer than faster sinking metal-style lures, which can be useful in shallow water, calm conditions and when squid are following but not committing. It can also be fished from a boat or harbour wall when anglers need a compact sinking squid lure with strong visual attraction and dependable hook-up design.

Technical Insight

The key advantage of the Yo-Zuri Squid Jig 95(S) is controlled sink performance. A sink rate around 6 inches per second allows anglers to count the lure down and hold it in productive water for longer, rather than dropping too quickly through the area where squid are hunting. This matters because squid often strike during the pause or fall, so a stable, balanced descent can be just as important as the retrieve itself.

The body design is intended to swim naturally while the swivel line tie helps reduce twist and maintain presentation. The squid jig crown hooks are designed specifically for squid, securing tentacles when squid attack rather than relying on a conventional single hook. Combined with realistic finishes, cloth texture and glow or reflective attraction depending on colour, the 95(S) gives anglers a practical, specialist lure for controlled squid fishing rather than a generic baitfish lure.
