puget sound squid
i heard rumors that redondo and seattle are producing some squid. Does anyone know if edmonds pier is producing any?
there's nothing better than standing on the side of a lake or river knowing that only a handful of people have stood in that exact spot and witness the beauty of mother nature first hand.

I know that Redondoe has squid. But I think right now its still a little early. Last year was my 1st year but we didnt go until December and I heard it dosnt start until november. But my budy did catch one this summer, durring the day, on a buzz bomb.
RE:puget sound squid
there's a report over at squidfish.net that says some guys are pulling limits at redondo right now. you can actually catch squid year round, they just get bigger in winter. average size in october november is usually 4-6 inches. i like going in october novermber cause its not as cold. sunset high tide usually the best. i might try my luck friday evening.gpc wrote:I know that Redondoe has squid.

I've heard of people doing good toward mid-late October and some occasional reports of good squidding in early October, but for me it's a Novermber-March fishery...

I was down at Redondo in July at 1:00 pm on a 80+ degree day and saw a guy catching squid one after another. I couldn't believe it as I have only caught squid at night as well. I have squided down at des moines a couple of times but have not seen any caught. Should be picking up soon I think, if it doesn't rain too much...

I've done pretty well squiding at the Brownsville Marinia in Kitsap county also I have a few squid during the day time at Illahee state park.

My buddy went down to Des Moines Marina a few days ago. He was there from 9 till 11 and he walked away with 6 squid. He said there was other people down there and they were doing really well. But some one did have a big spot light down there, so that might have been the reason they were doing so well.
RE:puget sound squid
sometimes it's hit or miss. I've heard of real good early season outings and I've also experienced some really slow squidding this time of year. Should be really good by thanksgiving...

RE:puget sound squid
I was down at Des Moines for about an hour last night. We got skunked but we saw a few caught. The plan is redondoe tonight.
RE:puget sound squid
A bunch of people were squidding last night at Des miones. I saw quite a few caught, but I got skunked again, surprise surprise.

I have had great luck and not so great (while those around me were killing em). Squiding does require a certain "touch".

Oh yeah and I havnt found it yet lol. I watch what they are doing and mimic it perfectly and it hasnt amounted to anything......yet
RE:puget sound squid
I know exactly what you mean. You watch their depth they drop their jigs down to, watch how often and how big of a jig they give, and still you get outfished 5-1...It's painful. I don't like it at all cause i like to be the one getting mimicked instead of being the frustrated one..gpc wrote:Mike Carey wrote:I have had great luck and not so great (while those around me were killing em).

RE:puget sound squid
yup its always funny to look over your shoulder and see all the other fisherman looking at you to see what you are doing. so you can say u are the best (or the luckiest) out there that day
