I was at the Kingston dock last night from about 9:30 to 10:30. Nothing there, and no other fisherman. This was my first time squidding ever, so either the squid just weren't there, or I was doing something wrong. I'll give it another go in a few nights. Hopefully, someone else will be there and I can observe and learn.

I've only tried kingston a few times with limited success. My best days have actually been in the summer months, this year especially. the squid were really drawn in by the dense schools of out migrating salmon smolts that congregated near the pier in june and early july. I had a few nights in early july were i was able to catch several dozen smaller size squid. It felt good to do a service for future salmon generations and get a tasty treat while i was at it. seems to me that squid fishing at kingston is really dependent on having a good food source to attract the squid. Ive only tried it twice since near the end of august and haven't seen a single squid. im sure kingston will see more squid as we get more into winter, just have to be patient.
