Welcome to the forum. It is great to have someone on board with some experience fishing in Singapore.



It would be terrific if you could tell us a few good spots in Singapore for squid fishing (either from boat or from land).



is it correct to say that frog island and lim chu kang are good spots?

Hi Glen,



Thanks heaps for inviting me into the forum...!

I would say the the Southern islands off Singapore would be a great spot to target arrow aquid and calamary....Me and my mates would normally fish for the squids on the chartered boat using baited jig which is lowered 1 metre into the water (at a highly lit boat side) to attract the squids. Usually we would scoop the smaller squids with a scoop net rather than trying to pull it up the baited jig as the smaller ones doesn't hold well. The smaller squids are then kept alive in a baitwell and used to target golden snappers, groupers etc...



Sentosa would be the place to do land squidding as the water is clearer with heaps of sea grass growing...



Hope that this helps...



Cheers,
