[quote name='Billiam' post='14666' date='Apr 30 2009, 08:52 AM']Hi, I'm a bit new to fishing for squid off of the pier/dock/shore but would love to try it. Can anyone give a physical address so that I could check out Greenport, NY. Last year I was on the francis fleet out of RI and I had a blast catching them there. I figure its worth a shot here in NY long island where it would be closer.
Thanks in advance.[/quote]
Take Route 25 into Greenport. Turn right at the traffic light onto 3rd St (and/or follow signs for the Shelter Island Ferry). At night you can park next to the ferry terminal/railroad station. Right next to the ferry terminal is an old railroad dock that a lot of people squid off of since the water is relatively deep. Try there or at the end of the newer marina docks across the way. Both are good spots. I usually go no earlier than 9pm. Good luck!
