2017 Rhode Island Squid Report

[alaskanaturally]

Probably around a dozen or 15... Two guys next to me got 2 in the first 10 mins I was there. Didn't see another squid caught in the next 2 hours! I waited for a dragger to come in because a worker there told me that the squid typically follow the boats in from the oxean because of their bright work lights. It pulled right up to unload it's catch of fish 15 feet from me and still no squid!

When no one showed up on Thurs, we though they all knew something we didn't. Must have been the stormy weather that stopped them. The previous Sat, we fished for 4 hours before catching the first squid. From 12-2 it was quite good. So the cephalopods might have shown up later. Who knows, we'll never figure it out.
