Frequently Asked Questions

What is Uncle Larry's UV Squid?

Uncle Larry's UV Squid is a soft hoochie for kokanee and landlocked salmon. The UV-charged body glows to fish and the tentacles pulse behind a dodger. It comes in 12 colors, including Pink, Triple Glow Pink, Blue Ice, Guide Series Purple, and Root Beer.

How do you fish the UV Squid for kokanee?

Run it slow behind a dodger. On Don Pedro, guides trolled a gold dodger with the UV Squid and Uncle Larry's Hoochies around 75 feet, tipped with corn for scent. The dodger swings the squid side to side, and the UV finish adds visibility in deep water.

What color UV Squid should I use?

It comes in 12 colors. On Don Pedro, purple was the producer, so guides matched it across the spread. Pink that worked the week before had cooled off, a reminder to rotate colors. Try Guide Series Purple, Triple Glow Pink, or Blue Ice as starting points.

How deep do you run the UV Squid?

On Don Pedro, guides ran a gold dodger with the UV Squid and Uncle Larry's Hoochies around 75 feet for kokanee. Set your gear to the depth fish are marking, keep the troll slow behind the dodger, and tip the hooks with scented corn.

What dodger goes with the UV Squid?

Pair it with the Trolling Dodger 4 inch for kokanee and trout. On Don Pedro a gold dodger swung the UV Squid slowly and drew the bite. The dodger gives the hoochie its side-to-side action, so match dodger size to your squid and trolling speed.
