I had great success last year catching them in broad daylight.

The idea that you can only catch them at night is a myth.

Seriously, one day I fished for 17 hours straight and the periods in between fishing

were a function, more of when the schools came through then time of day.



I'm Just Sayin



Thanks for fishing and for the updates from our pioneers.



I am coming from about an hour away, and depend on you for prevention of CO2 emmissions.

Funny to hear everyone talking about lights. All I can say is, my light setup is gonna take the cake and be the coo of the bridge. You'll know when you see it. Hahaha. Come by and say "hi".

That's incredible!! and in the daytime no less!



I only see one jig on her line, how did she catch 4 at once??



I'd like to fish next to her and see how she does it.


Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - kacewicz - 20-04-2008

She used multiple jigs. Stand next to her all you want. It will do you no good. I fished next to her several times. I would use the same jigs and rig and mimic her jigging. She would outcatch me at least 5 to 1. It would drive me CRAZY! She is a sweetheart.

She had three jigs on the time she caught 4.

Different guy submitted the photo but I was there when the whole place went nuts over her jackpot catch.

Did you see how she was using them? Was she jigging them vertically or casting and swimming them or what? I wonder if she was using some kind of scent on them.

Four is not very common but when they are runnung you can get 3 at a time often

last year i filled 4 buckets myself in one afternoon


Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - mino_401 - 20-04-2008

the squid aren't in yet... word from last night's trip...


Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - flukeprodigy - 20-04-2008

I still say the first ink stains on the bridge will be monday


Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - MoparMeanie - 20-04-2008

Three or four guys on the GI bridge today around noon with no luck. Should be soon! <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/fishing.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />

Maybe not New Port,,, but very, very close this morning. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />

No bucket loads,, enough for a meal though (11 total). Was hit & run / slow & none. Just as the sky was lighting up.

Someone experienced may have done better. I'm just a nimrod at squidding w/ R&R.
