Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - Fluffy - 20-04-2008
Hi everyone, first post!
I seem to remember seeing a thread about a t-shirt somewhere, but I can't find it. Anyways, here's a design I did - it's still a rough draft, so it looks a little messy. (I can change the words) Any suggestions? <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> I have the picture on as an attachment.

[quote name='Floatsum' post='10579' date='Apr 19 2008, 07:49 PM']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='
' /> 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.[/quote]

About 150 yds off a rocky striper shoreline in S. County.
Traded a Yak for anouther Canoe and just had to try it out.
Was actually hoping for stripers on the flyrod,,, nothing. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />All I had for squid was a (heavy) freshwater rod with a green yozuri(?).
Had planned on trying for some Tog too, but never did.
Hopping to go again Monday/Tuesday morning. If I get more I'll be sure and post a pic.

these are my favorite models for yo-zuri jigs... blue/pink are the best from personal experience...

Last nite between 9-10:30 there was a spike in water temp. it rose and fell dramtically (from 45.4 and back down to 44)with the peak over 48 degrees. It is climbing quickly today and already approaching 48.

I was at GI for a little while (2330-0100) last night, and saw a couple squid in buckets (3 or 4). There's definitely going to be some action soon.

Just got back from fishing since Friday. I didn't catch a thing <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> . There were a few swimming aroung but nothing was biting for me and many others. There were two guys who did catch a few. They said a small school came in and then quickly left. They were fishing to the side and had their generator running.

NP. I think I'm gonna go buy a Coleman and head back again tonight, give it another shot... I don't have to head out for work for a couple days <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />. BTW, I just read the story about the melting rope on the Coleman- any suggestions on a good rope to get that won't melt through? Thanks.
Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season - Fluffy - 21-04-2008
WHEEEEEEE squid are in! I might be going today or tomorrow. If there are a few straggling in now, does that mean the rest are heading in within the next few days, or is it more gradual??
I was there last year and the year before but never caught much... max 6-7 squid per trip. How the heck to people manage to fill buckets?!?!?! <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> ...done ranting. don't listen to me. :3
KGJ - the only ropes that melt are the nylon or plastic-ish ones, so something like a clothesline shouldn't melt since its made of cotton. On the other hand, it might go up in flames instead. (you never know.)

Hmmm... could work. since it's a little late for this year, maybe I'll do something like this next year and bring them to the bridge. Could be fun. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
