[quote name='sfoxnh' post='10042' date='Mar 26 2008, 05:22 AM']Nice to meet you bimin twist
Mr. Boston and I actually want to thanks tym1 for letting us know about Boston Squid Fishing. I actually have doubt when tym1 told us about it.
I asked around local people (near the pier), they mention that in the past 3 yr, they actually see squids around, but no one actually squid for it. So my plan is May in Goat Island and June in Boston. As a matter of fact, I still catch squid until September in Boston Harbor, but not as crazy as in early May in New Port. Thanks tym1 (Kevin!)
How big is your boat ?[/quote]
I have a 23 patriot maritime skiff , so i can fish pretty much any time of the year. i had the boat in the harbor 2 weeks ago and looking forward to doing some cod fishing . Maybe you can show me the ropes for squiding in the harbor , do you fish from a boat.

[quote name='bimin twist' post='10040' date='Mar 26 2008, 04:36 AM']Mr. Boston
I fish the same way so I have no problem staying until dawn have done it many time over. Did I see your name on apost about squid fishing boston harbor . I have fished boston harbor all my life and never knew there could be squid caught in the harbor[/quote]
Awesome! Sounds like my kind of squidding partner <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='  ' /> , Yes me,sfoxnh,1tym caught squid in Nut Island in quincy over this summer.. The squid we catch here in Boston is a bit smaller and doesnt run like they do in Newport but good enough to go after them.I believe we can catch them June-Sept, I too was surpised that we could catch squid right in our backyard but 1tym (Kevin) has proven us wrong...

Hey Guys. I was here last year. LAyed low on forums. But yeah. Super excited to Come from NH to Newport. LOL. Like every year I do. But I might be back on the bridge this year. Unfortunately snow has to fall and a lot of houses collapsed. Even worst MY GARAGE Collapsed on the back of my boat. Hopefully. I can just pull it out. But Squid usually comes in on the 25 of April. So you can expect me to be on the bridge then.

Funny I was just talking to my brother about our plan of attack for this coming squid season. I told him last night "i'll let you know when I get the first email from squidfish.net" Not 24hrs later and here we are.
I'm looking into alternatives to the bridge this year. Been hitting it up the past 3 yrs now and every year it gets worse. True it yields some nice catches on certain nights but the overcrowding and rudeness of a lot of people on that bridge has persuaded me to look into other options. Last year I even had a guy go so far as to reel up my line RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME and proceed to attempt to steal it. I wanted to heave him overboard! Plus in the event that trash becomes an issue again this year as it has in past, i'd like to have a backup plan JUST in case they shut it down like they've been threatening to do for a couple years now.
Either way i'm lookin forward to getting out there with you all and fillin up some buckets!

When people are literally being bussed in, i don't think it makes much difference, especially when the best action is at night. I've gone during the week, ,mornings, ,afternoons, nights , weekends and it's been PACKED within an hour of me arriving every single time. I've never once had a night there that it wasn't.
Just out of curiosity, (no racism intended) but doesn't anyone know why the bridge is always shoulder to shoulder asians? I noticed they get bussed there too but where from? On several occassions last yr. i saw multiple busses bringing hundreds of asians to the bridge. The only plus side is I'm taller than all of them so i can see over everyone and find my friends easily ...heh.

I, agree, we should all lead by example. And I don't mean to single you out 1Tym or to bust anybody's b*11$ and I hope I don't piss off any of the good folks here because I enjoy fishing with all of you.
[color="#0000ff"]How often do each of you bring a trash bag and pick up? I brought a large trash bag most times I went last year and picked up other peoples trash in waterfront park; and most times someone saw me picking trash and helped out. [/color][color="#ff8c00"]ALL OF THOSE TIMES AT LEAST ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO HELPED AND OFTEN THE ONLY PERSON THAT HELPED WAS A CHILD OF ASIAN HERITAGE.
[/color]
Now I realise that this doesn't mean that children of Asian heritage are more likely to help than others. I realise that when 80% of the people around are of Asian heritage there is an 80% chance that (variables in upbringing aside)if something is done good or bad it will be done by...............
................ someone of Asian heritage.
[color="#000080"]I challenge each and every one of you to bring a trash bag every time you go this year and pick trash when the squiding slows[/color]. (when you're not cooking, eating and drinking beer).
