Newport, Ri - 2009 Squid Season
[quote name='TravisS' post='14488' date='Apr 23 2009, 01:20 AM']Spawnle - <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol' /> <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' /> When you are an ugly bastid like myself, you have to be well endowed in other areas if you want a good looking companion...but I don't have that going for me either. Now that I think of it, I have noticed her squinting a bit when we are watching the tube, so I think she just need glasses!



She comes down there with me almost every trip, she loves squidding![/quote]



The only reason i go squid fishing is to get close to Travis's wife. Some day hopefully she will leave him for me. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wub.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Tongue' /> <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' />

Well i guess i could just stay home with her and make sure there is no family fighting while your fishing and you could take out TILF2 with you. But on the other hand i think i would rather go out in the boat because you never know what great things i might miss out on if i am not there.

Squid: The other other OTHER white meat
just checked the forecast for CT for the coming 10 days. There's a run of 5 days that are pushing 90 degrees. I then checked the Newport forecast and must say, the temps were quite a bit lower than I thought they would be. Temps look like they might break 70 at some point but at least it doesn't look like they'll drop below 50 for a week or so...after tomorrow that is.



Should give us a nice bump in the water temps....giggity

Was out there last night around 8:30-10:00p with a cloud of bait under my light, but no squid. Other's were leaving when I arrived, one squidder came to check if we were having any luck, obviously he wasn't either.



high tide was at 6:40p

There's going to be more people than squid for this weekend.
Nothing? I'm about to head down soon.

Yep.

I think so too^



I'll wait until next wknd for the 1st outing...unless buckets are being filled before then.
Hello Newport squidders. A friend showed me your forum last year and I have been getting a kick out of the posts and passion for squid fishing you all have. I went with my Dad years (over 25) ago off Newport for squid and I barely remember it. Last year I swore I would go and take my kids (5 and 7) but striper fishing takes up most of my time and I never get around to it. Last night I was at Benny's and picked up a handful of yozuri jigs and really hope to get out there with my kids. Not looking for buckets, just a handful for scup bait would be great. So....I have a few questions I hope I can get answered without anyone giving away secrets.

1. I know goat island is a key area, what about times? I know night is best, but with the kids, is early morning( 7-9am) or evening (7-9pm??) good too?

2. We have a boat too, are there areas I could try for squid during the day with the kids?

3. Do you put a weight at the bottom of the rig with the yozuri or just fish them direct?



Any help is greatly appreciated and I hope the squid show up in big numbers and you all have a great season!
