Colliers was on fire last night. 2 of us filled 2 80 quart coolers. Have plenty of bait and table fare and plenty to give to family and friends. Fished 20-25.

Get out there while the bite is hot.

Just a note guys, Tomo has Yamashita Naorys on sale for $5.99!! Not a lot of colors left in some sizes but I just loaded up. Lucky gets like fourteen bucks apiece for these deadly little jigs. Tomo says Yamashita is re-doing the Naory line and he is selling off his old stock. Oh yeah, free shipping on orders over a hundred bucks.

Thanks for the heads up I just ordered some.

In the last few years squid fishing RI picked up in the middle of May to early June. We need warmer water. Anyone who tries tonight won’t need to put them on ice. The’ll be iced before you knock them off your jig! Wind chill in thirties tomorrow.

fwiw, it looks like RI allowed the out of state quarantine order to expire on 5/8.   It isn't in the list of orders that got extended, so it expires today.




2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - 1BigSquid - 09-05-2020

weather look a bit wet tonite around 6 anyone tempting to go today?




2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - lasker31 - 09-05-2020

I fished from a east facing pier (west wind) with relatively calm conditions in the Narragansett sound of Rhode island for about 2 hours. Caught none and saw none. Usually in season I would have had a decent ball of bait around my underwater light which was not happening last night. A few others tried briefly while I was there also with no results. Worth getting out of the house but I think it definitely still too early.

That would be great news for us CT folks Greg! Otherwise Stonington I guess...


2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - Jkk - 09-05-2020

Just had 20 squid in falmouth yesterday from 9pm to 1130pm all from the pier.

Glad you got some, deals like that don't happen every day. Hope some others got some too, the Naory 1.8B is one of the deadliest jigs I have ever used. the 1.5 Hiika Special sinks at the same rate as the 1.8B and is also a goodie.



2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - Matsquidman - 09-05-2020

The RI out of State Quarantine is still in effect. Thanks for the Tomo sale info. What a deal! Ordered several. A friend said very few caught last night at GI. Went today for a short time. Nothing! Not worth the trip yet!

Is there any dock/pier with good lighting for squid fishing around south mass or cape cod area? Would love to try squid fishing for the first time

Quote:"Raimondo is also extending the mandatory 14 day quarantine for people coming from out-of-state to stay in Rhode Island."

 

From this I think we are still not allowed to to RI yet...
 

Not sure what you were quoting here, but as of right now (7:30pm, May 8th) the governor hasn't extended that order past today. Where did you hear that it is being extended? Maybe I am missing something? 

 

Her order from today is here: https://governor.ri.gov/documents/orders/Executive-Order-20-31.pdf

 

You guys can read for yourselves which orders have been specifically extended here: https://governor.ri.gov/newsroom/orders/

 

That being said, there is currently quite a bit of tension in RI and it might be a good idea to steer clear for now anyway. Quite a few of the governor's orders have been unclear and somewhat contradictory, resulting in very inconsistent handling by individual police officers. Some have refused outright to enforce her orders, while others have been zealously enforcing whatever interpretation they fall on.

 

I think that they are basically doing the best they can with what they have to work with but I'm sure it is difficult when things aren't clear cut.

They snuck another one in late in the day.  https://governor.ri.gov/documents/orders/Executive-Order-20-32.pdf  

 

Out of state quarantine extended until 5/23.  I was surprised when it looked like they let it lapse.  Fear and loathing run deep.



2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - Captain Pumpkinhead - 09-05-2020

That must have happened right after I posted.

 

I am appalled though not surprised. 

 

I think I may go back to sea for the duration. 




2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - lasker31 - 10-05-2020

The checkpoint set up on Route 1 in Westerly has been removed. Any word if the one on Route 95 is still up and running?




2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - algreenjr - 10-05-2020

Has anyone check to see if the Dem dock in Jamestown is open for fishing


2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - Matsquidman - 10-05-2020

All out of state license plates are being directed by the state police to the Jamestown exit just before the Newport Bridge. They will tell them to quarantine for 14 days with a few exceptions.


2020 MA/RI Squid Thread - SquidFox - 11-05-2020

We went out on Thursday, got 2 buckets each. Better than last week but not good neither, seen way better action.

The squid are mostly small in sizes and the big ones are skinny, not the premium kind caught in past years, these squid consistance with Martha's squid.

So far I only net 120 pounds for the years after 2 trips, not so good.

By the way scups are in now.
