Newport Ri 2015 Squid Season - Crazyjaw96 - 22-05-2015
I was thinking off hitting the FF as well, the forecast kind of turned me off, I saw SW 10-15 with gusts to 20 and 3 ft seas.

That forecast is nothing to worry about. I would take my boat out in that and i'm half the length and a fifth the mass.

I'm heading back up to RI tonight. Looking forward to some good calamari this long weekend! Hope to bump into BillG, Janz, or Gilligan one of these nights!
Newport Ri 2015 Squid Season - JANZ - 23-05-2015
Went out with FF last night. Left the dock at 7pm and returned at 12:30am  Was still light when we started
and fished for 1 1/2 hrs before it got dark enough to turn on the lights. not a single squid was caught during
that time. Once dark enough it was a very slow pick of mixed size tubes. Towards the end there were some
at the surface but very hard to get them to take the jig, they liked to look at it.  I caught exactly 20 squid for
the night.  Best on the boat was not much more than that.  Even numbers of small med and large tubes.
Pink and crystal clear were the best colors. Â Most squid came on the top jig that was about 3-4 feet above
the bottom jig.  But if you tried to fish that zone keeping your weight off the bottom got no takes. Got 3 at
the surface doing the figure 8 with top jig just under the surface. One double for me the whole night. There
were squid there just not concentrated in numbers like last year, heard every excuse in the books as to why
its like that.  Mostly 2' waves then some rain and then flattened right out, but was cold. Met an angler who
visits the forum but doesn't post. Should have been there Wed night, story of life.

not sure if I ran into you JANZ, I was mostly in the bow. they did not want to bite at all, just touching the jig. I had decent life for 25 min at the end, although again they were just barely tapping the jig. most on the bottom but definitely on the higher hooks. caught & released two 16-16.5" fluke at the beginning...didn't know that would be the highlight of the action

Looks like they're slowing down in. Caught less and less each night the past week. Sat/Sun was killer. Went from 15 an hour to not even 3 an hour last night. Might try again tonight. North of Newport.

Bristol was hot but last night the cops came down and kicked everybody off both town piers for fishing the private float docks.boats were getting inked and trash was being left behind as well as pot smoking and alcohol use.i wasn't there personally but received a call from a friend as soon as it happened.only a handful of locals with parking permits were allowed to stay in the parking lots.if anyone is planning to head there tonight beware of the posted signs now that they've been there they will b back every night unfortunately.just park on the main road and fish the main dock.not worth getting tagged and towed for squid.

Can you use a generator on the town public dock
Newport Ri 2015 Squid Season - dabeers54 - 23-05-2015
I was just there the other day but was using dock electric
Newport Ri 2015 Squid Season - JANZ - 23-05-2015
Wow that all sounds familiar. More and more of the not so pleasant folks have taken up squidding.

All I want to do is relaxing not kicked out while I'm relax.
