Newport, Ri - 2008 Squid Season
[quote name='Scuba Joe' post='11751' date='May 16 2008, 04:38 PM']Are you going to GI, i willl also be there sat night[/quote]





Yea, I think i'll be making the trip down with a few friends. May not last too long, depending on the weather and the bite. Maybe we'll see you down there. Best of luck!
I think I'll be going sat night. I've had too many raw nights with little to no squid to try last night. Sat looks more promising. I think I will try the wall this time. I'll be there by 10ish bringin a genny if needed with extra outlets.

I'm gonna hold off on travelong for squid, trying to save a little $ for a boat, The wife has given permission, Anybody know of a decent 20' cuddy
I went out last night. It wasnt a bail sesion but I was able to get a couple trips worth for fluke bait. Lots of slobs on the bridge one family watched me pick up all the trash they threw on the ground. I would of said somthing but they couldnt barely speak english... figured they would get the hint... But I was wrong <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':angry:' />

Update:



Was there from 3PM - 10PM got 57 squids (half 5 gallon bucket), not a bad night.

I found that high tide, it's better to fish near the cove (near basketball court), when low tide move to the bridge.

but the bridge is overcrowd on the weekend, so I always try to avoid the bridge.
Are the squids still here? I'm planning to come up again this tuesday (3rd time's a charm?). Please udpate squid info. Thanks <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':angry:' />

Tony, We left right after you with around 25. It was our best night yet. Call me with link. 2037391136.
apparently the frances fleet reported some insane results on their last squid trip.

Hey Pearldiver, thanks again for all your help over the weekend. You didn't really miss anything after you left. We stayed until about 5:00 and left with 14 squid. Not exactly the big catch I was hoping for. I'm starting to give in to the idea of the Francis Fleet. I didn't want to, but i'm losing hope for the bridge this year.



Anyways, we expect to be back down there on Thursday, and maybe again over the weekend. I'll keep an eye out for you. I'll definitely buy one of those reflectors if you still have em. Take care.



--and congrats to your Penguins!
