Bremerton Ferry terminal is under a transition due to the construction of the new marina. We are hoping public acces is not restricted. That was a great place to squdi fish year round, 24 hours a day! Port Orchard has a few places. Brownsville has a large area. Kingston is also good. If people are catching only a few squid, I would bet many many more are around. For what ever reason (wrong jig color/type, depth, etc.), you are not catching them. They tend to school so a few usually means many squid! Make sure you change depth and method of jigging. You may also want to change the color of the squid jig and the number of squid jigs on your line. People who squid fish around here tend to be tight lipped. No reports may mean good squid fishing.



When we get good amounts of rain/runoff, stay away from creek/river inflows. This murks up the water. Our squid really like clear water. We have been receiving increased orders the last two months which tells me people are using the squid jigs! Just get out there and keep trying!



I am now off to clean some mussels and clams the wife and I got today. Man was it windy! Below freezing wind chills. Oved around to a few different locations in the North Hood Canal. A good 15 pounds of mussels/clams. Also shucked a few oysters! Yum Yum yum! Tomorrow going to fly fish for some searun cutthroat!



Happy New year![/quote]



Any suggestion for Whidbey Island?
