Hello forum, 

Had an interesting experience yesterday afternoon spinning that i would like to share for some feedback:

Was spinning top water (specifically sandeel savage gear lures) in a very shallow very small marina (imagine one single concrete ramp). After a few casts, i had a tail from what i thought was a small grouper, as soon as i stopped the lure, i had the bite. Wasnt a grouper, squid from the looks of it approximately 1.5-2kg's! Didnt manage to land the fish but brought it at about 1 meter from me, keep in mind the strike happened at around 2 m out, all visible to me which was quite a thrill but rather puzzling. 

I have fished squid with jigs quite a bit actually, never knew that i could catch them with a walking bait! any ideas on this? as to why this has happened or anyone out there reading this had a similar experience?

Thanks
