first off, Long time lurker (2 years), first time poster....
been squidding for a few years prior to finding this website. been fishing for 20+ years all over the northeast and gulf....
I am all for helping people out in the initiation of squidding with gear, techniques, cleaning, and the causeway,,,, but i am also for the protection of some spots... No more name spotting...... I will never fish the causeway due to the amount of people and crowds, i'm not into fighting for elbow room...
it doesn't take much for someone who wants to squid to take a little drive and scope out some spots, that aren't as mobbed as the causeway.
there are MANY spots that are very fishable with minimal effort to get to them.
take a day trip and drive around, it will pay off come may......
