Where's the squid?? While sitting at home last night watching Seattle's KCPQ Q13 Fox News the last scene they has was a webcam of Elliott Bay and it was not foggy. You could see Pier 62/63 and saw at least 2 groups there fishing!! 

 

Anyone have any updates on squidding in downtown Seattle over the last few days?  I saw some jiggers on the waterfront as I drove along the street on Friday night, but didn't have a chance to stop and see how they were doing.

I fished friday night, nothing but a few small squid

I tried again at Edmonds on Saturday night. There were about 15-20 people there and no one caught a thing 😢

I was there at Edmonds on Sat night and got one. The most that I saw people get were about 3-4. Seal chasing em away.

Has anyone ever fished in Case Inlet for Squid ? There is a long lighted pier about 400 ft. long and well lighted but I never see anyone there.

Does anybody know if les davis or des  moines is a better spot to jig for a  for a newbie in a wheelchair ?

I'm still looking for info about Case Inlet Squid. Anyone have any info?

Not sure about Des Moines but Les Davis has some pretty high railing around the pier.  I guess it doesn't hurt to give it a try.  I'm new to squid fishing as well so don't know how much help this is to you.  Good Luck.

I used to fish the Des Moines pier and always caught as many as I needed, usually about 16 squid. I didn't need more than that so I left after that. No sense in catching more than I wanted to clean.

Anything in Seattle. They should be there NOW!

At Des Moines, you have to find street parking on a semi-busy street.  Les Davis has it's own parking lot so it seems safer to me.  Les Davis should see action in a month or so.

Got a couple of jumbos last friday @Edmonds  but was pretty slow except for a specific spot...may try to go this fri again.

[Squidman1]

Might have to join you guys on friday! Looks like a good incoming and high!

[liam]

I probably won't be out there til 830 or 9

Went down to Edmonds! On the way down riding my bike I lost my reel handle. Fortunately my friend had a reel I could borrow. Lots of people but found a spot. Lots of small squid were being caught along with the occasional jumbo or two. Then we had several schools od jumbos making a show. But the seal was around but that did NOT stop the fishing. Met a fellow Squidder and a WaLaker, Liam. Nice to meet you! Lots of fun for 1-2 pounds of squid.

Those little squid have such a great texture. We cooked ours last night like shabu shabu (hot pot). Gotta say, if my wife doesn't go into labor this Friday I'll be back! See you guys then
