2019 Rhode Island Squid Report

[greg ct]

Yea the boat was very close to shore probably no more than half mile off in water. Its south side of the Galilee harbor at a location right out of Matunuck point. I think its probably 15 to 20 feet water, pretty shallow. There were several small boats fishing out there at night

 

Good eye.  The first two anchor points were .6 miles from shore, but in 30-35 feet.  It looks like they drifted after that in shallower water.

 

As for squid inside the harbor of refuge, or in point judith pond, I've never seen it but old timers say they used to get them over by the commercial docks.  I'd love it if I could fish off the back of my boat in the marina.  I'd never have a down day. 

 

It's killing me sitting at the dock.  But I'm still waiting on parts to come back from the part doctors.  Sigh.

 

At least they are in and relatively easy to find.
