Thurs Oct 7th- Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass
Capt Dave reports good fishing today on the Viking Starship. Started the day inshore in the shallow water with tons of action, but smaller sized Sea Bass and Porgies. The boat bounced around a bit moving farther offshore looking for bigger sized fish and landed on a good spot. They fished in about 100 feet of water and pulled up some Large and Jumbo sized Porgies and some Big Sea Bass. In total the boat had about 15 keeper Cod Fish. Overall fishing was good, it took a minute to find the good sized fish, but when they did it was all large sized. The pool winner went to Mike Emmanoulidis from Union County, NJ with a 3.5lb Porgy. The edible pool winner went to Frank Eisma from Baltimore, MD with a 4.5lb Sea Bass.

Sunday Sept 19th – Full Moon Striped Bass
Capt Carl reports similar lackluster results on the Night Striped Bass trip again… although, we did see a couple of Striped Bass for the night. We found one little zone where we caught a slot limit keeper. The very next drift, we caught another Bass that was too big, and another that was too small. Then, unfortunately the night went quiet for the remainder. We only saw 1 Bluefish and a few SeaBass so all in all, it was quiet as the fall run has not yet begun.

Capt. Dave reports a slow start to the trip over by the Lighthouse this morning. Over by the Lighthouse we caught some small to medium size Seabass but because of the storm our fishing grounds were all messed up so we wanted to try something a little different and went off to the East. Over in the deeper water we caught tons of Seabass and some nice size Porgies. Overall we had a pretty decent pick today with lots of medium to large Seabass and some medium to Jumbo Porgies.
