Went out squidding for the first time lest night. Went to watermans doc in Port Orchard. Got there at about 10pm. Not alot of action until a bit after high tide (11:52pm). Once 12 midnight came around had some descent luck. Caught about 15 fairly good size (6-8 inches). Also did a bit of crabbing, got some nice 6-8 inch Redrocks, caught my limit.
Also went out again tonight. Arrvied same place at around midnight. Was pretty slow, every else left, then around 2am a huge school came through and i was hook one ever minute or 2 atleast for a bit there. Over all i think i pulled atleast 50-60 tonight. I ended up leaving at around 4:215 and they were still bighting like crazy on a pole from a guy that showed up right before i left. Did some crabbing again also, got my limit, although these were not as big as yesterdays, but still legal and gonna be my dinner tomorrow.
The squid are here!
Gear:
7 foot fly fish pole.
Green Jogs, glow in the dark, small. I will give the brand later, its getting late and im super tired.
Hope that helps!

Hi there,
Thank you very much for sharing your success with us! I am contemplating on trying this sport for the first time ever and I have a few questions. Do I need any spot lights or anything to attrack them? How deep do I need to cast the line? Why did you selected Port Orchard? Many thanks in adavance.
