Saturday August 2
Montauk Night Blue Fishing
Fishing was really great tonight- everyone caught more than enough fish to take home., Started off slow but within an hour we had steady fishing and the last two hours was a bail job! Mr Leonard Rego Brooklyn, NY won the pool with a 16.1Lbs bluefish so come on down next week and join us aboard the Viking. Check out the photos!
Night Striped Bass
Fishing was tough tonight. The winner of the pool was Edwin Sueulanda of Sag Harbor NY, with a 39.7lbs striper.
Full Day Block Island Fluke
Full day fluke was once again phenomenal! We found a new body of fish that was thick, big, and hungry. Double headre keeprs were coming up alomg with many quality fish. Some shining stars included the pool winner Stu Haimes of Plainview NY who had a 9.5lbs doormat, as well as his son Scott who nailed a 7.95 pounder! Eddie Chang true to form caught 14 keepers (keeping his limit of 4) to 8.3lbs. Also, we had Mike Shapiro who had his limit to 8.5 pounds. There were many many fish in the 5-7lbs range. It does not get any better than this- with the entire boat limiting out. Sunday August 3 is sold out as well as next Saturday Aug 9, so call now to book your trip for next weekend!Remember, there is no better fluke fishing than Block Island fluke fishing!
Check out the photos in our gallery from today's trip.
Half Day Fluke PM
Afternoon trip was a little slower than the morning bite.Joe Gannon won the pool with a 4.1lbs fluke.
Half Day Fluke AM
Fishing was good today with a lot of action on the AM fluke trip with a lot of shorts and a few keepers. The pool winner was Steve Rissman from Brooklyn New York who had a 3.95lb fluke. Second place in the pool went to Pete Kelly of Elwood New York who caught a 3.9 pounder.
Porgy and Seabass
Porgy fishing was a little tough today, although everybody went home with some fish. We certainly tried hard enough' traveling north, east and west, and managed to put together a day for most folks. And an added unexpected bonus was the 12 keeper fluke to Kevin Chan's 6 pounder. Mate Eric B had 3 keeper fluke to 7 lbs. Mike Desena won the pool with a jumbo 3.9 lb porgy.
