I just received the following email from RIDEM regarding the requirement to have a license to fish for squid:



Hi Mr. Burbank,



My name is Kevin Smith and I am a Principal Biologist with the Rhode Island Division of Fish and Wildlife. Ray Macera, up at Licensing, forwarded me your email and asked that I respond to you. To answer your question: Yes, a recreational license is required to recreationally fish for squid. In 2012, the regulations were amended to include squid in the recreational license requirements. Here is a link to the regulations, and if you scroll down to Rule 9, section 9.1, you will see that squid is included: [url="http://www.dem.ri.gov/pubs/regs/regs/fishwild/licensing.pdf"]http://www.dem.ri.gov/pubs/regs/regs/fis...ensing.pdf[/url]



Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions or concerns.



Thank you,



Kevin
