Squid are back
Good sized ones too. Not as thick as last year, yet. But the crowds on the public docks are shoulder to shoulder......

I said the same thing..last year and agian this season... even brought "gear" capable of catching them last night... and of coarse... none to be had... maybe the hord of 33 1/2" fish ( my guess the ones that got filtered, as alot had already been hooked) along the beach front had something to do with it....no snapper/cocktail blues either...the night before.. i could have walked on the bait there was so much...
I may try this week end to anchor up over deeper structure hang a lantern over the side ( like we did to catch saw belly herring when I was a kid) and try a little squiddin'.. |
A good run is better than a bad stand!

So much for that.... No Fishing signs went up on all public docks here today.... Be interesting to see how this plays out.
Issues I've heard discussed are;
Parking problems due to squidders
New docks, paid for from mooring fees trashed with ink
Trash left on grounds, pier and neighborhood
Someone took a crap in park next to pier

Are you kidding me? that is just really really unfortunate. It's always a few bad apples... I was going to try to get out there in the next few days as well as I have friends coming in from out of town and would have loved to give them a nice calamari appetizer! Sounds like I'll be hitting the store  |

I took about 40 squid over 1 ft long the other night. If anyone feels like coming out one of these nights, PM me. They've been huge in Gloucester. All the guys next to me were a little pissed that they were just dropping and catching the little guys. I like to fish my yo-zuri jigs like a plug. I might not get the hundreds like all the other guys, but it does get the attention of the big boys!

AL's bait & tackle in beverly fought the no fishing nazis and won. Anyone who wishes the no fishing signs come down I would suggest you contact him to see how it's done.
He is on FB as well

My GF wants to try her hand at catching fresh calamari- if anyone knows a not-banned spot feel free to PM me. First stop will likely be Spinn's smelting standard, though.

If I wasn'y going to be in Pennsylvania this weekend I would take you up to the base and fish at the Marina....absolutely no crowds up there. |

I just like the "someone took a crap in the park next to the pier." Truly the S&^t that broke the Harbormaster's back! What will they think of next? |

I think the signs are scaring away the boaters, too. TDF and I had the ocean to ourselves last night under the Blue Moon.... I mean, no one was out fishing or even cruising around.... It was a real nice night too. Saw a couple rocks that aren't often visible....up close. And the bugs were out a little.

They were there, and we found a few. Wasn't lights out fishing and they were a little smaller than the past nights, but was good as long as you weren't using a circle hook......

Yeah, we can consider the book closed on that experiment... |
