Ok, I'll give a report and bring some life back in this thread =)
Sat night...late...around 20 between 2 of us. Around 2 hrs of jigging.
Mon night....also late....my best night of the yr so far. Just me and the "squid slayer" (as I call
him) =)
Put in 3 hrs, 38 caught....lost many. Ink all over my jacket, boots, work lights...hands, face, you name
It..Had to take off so I could get at least a few hrs of sleep before work...and they were still around
when we left.

Also, a tip...you see tons of bait, move, if not wait for the bait to thin out....
....some bait, but not many, stick around.
Just my observations, of course....
Good luck all.

Was down at GI with some friends Friday the 15th. Arrived at 9pm and the fog was really thick. Couldn't see anything but the lights on the other bridge across the water.
GI Bridge was still hopping though. When we arrived 9pm we met up with two friends who had been at it since 4pm. Only 1 squid(approx 8") btw the both of them.
It was a very quiet night. Lots of people out but very few squid caught. Ended up snagging two more squid among the 5 of us (also approx 6-8") and left around 3AM. The group of guys next to us(Mojo, his son and his son's friend) ended up hauling in few skates, 3 spider crabs and chicken lobster.

GI=Goat Island, near newport. The bridge going on to it by the marriot is where a LOT of people will fish for squid.
It's been more of a social gathering for the past season or two than a fishing spot, but hey, people still have fun and sometimes will accidentally catch a few squid. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=' ' />
