My son and I are planning a squid fishing trip to RI. This is the first time squid fishing and I have two questions. What are the license requirements for squid fishing in the state of RI. And the second question is can anyone provide some hints on where to fish. We will be in the Point Judith pond area.
Thanks[/quote]
No license needed for saltwater fishing in RI. The Goat Island causeway bridge in Newport is the most popular spot. Search on Mapquest for the Hyatt Hotel in Newport to see where it is. Probably a 20 minute ride from where you will be. Not sure if you can get squid off the commercial fishing docks in Point Judith Pond, but that should be a pretty likely spot. Good luck.
