2017 Rhode Island Squid Report

[alaskanaturally]

After checking the weather and tides, decided we'd give it a shot.  Seems my brother-in-law had the same idea as he arrived just minutes before we did. Water certainly wasn't clear but I was expecting worse.  Tide was going out and once dark, we managed to still attract bait fish with the lights. Fair amount of wind made it cold to be out fishing but water was relatively calm. A little slow to start but ended up with a little over 60 between my wife and I in about two hours. Still smallish but larger than a few weeks ago.

 

We arrived just before sunset and started a bit before dark.  No one was fishing but us for the the first hour and a half.  Had a couple people walk up to the bridge early to ask before we caught anything.  A small group of guys and one individual showed up late as the tide had almost gone slack.  Surprised at the lack of people trying on a Sat given the weather cleared even earlier than forecast. 

Thanks Folkcafe, We'll up there in a couple of days and appreciate the report.
