Fishing Report 9-17-23 – Night Fishing Has Been Good to Us

We’ve had to cancel some day trips due to weather, but going out at night we’ve had some pretty amazing catches. Check out these photos of some of the porgy that our guests caught in our night fishing trip on September 17th:

Porgies have been really biting for some of the people that join us on our 7:30pm to 12:30am trips. While we wish we were able to do more of the day trips, people are bringing home some really special catches during these nights out. If you joined us, don’t forget to freeze the ones you won’t be eating this week so you can have some delicious meals for the next several months.

Join us on one of our night fishing trips or watch our Facebook to see when the weather is good enough for us to start day fishing again.

Fishing Report – Weekend Recap – 7-31-23

The past weekend offered plenty of opportunities for all of our guests. Saturday’s trips from 8 AM to 1 PM and 2 PM to 6 PM showed a nice collection of Porgys, with everyone aboard leaving with a tasty dinner for the evening. We also started to spot some Trigger fish, adding to the variety of catches. Check out some of the photos from the weekend:

Unfortunately, our nighttime fishing from 7:30 PM to 12:30 AM was a bit slower this weekend. However, we’re taking this as a challenge rather than a setback, and are out tonight with a small crowd to try our luck in a different area.

Looking ahead, we will continue with our regular schedules tomorrow. Day trips are from 8 AM to 1 PM and 2 PM to 6 PM, while our nightly sail is from 7:30 PM to 12:30 AM. If you’re interested in a unique fishing experience under the starry night sky, come on down and join us.

Fishing Report 6-24, 2023: Jumbo Porgies

Look at these big boys. We went out on the water during the day on June 24th, at 2pm, and then again at 7:30pm and the porgies were not only biting – these bad boys were huge. You already know that porgies taste incredible, but when you add in their size, you’re getting a ton of meat. Check out some of the photos of the fish our guests took home:

Porgies are not the only fish we caught that day, but they definitely were the most common, and their size was wild. We’re sailing almost every day, morning and night, so make sure you contact us to get your tickets and book your trip.

Fishing Report – June 7th, 2023

We’ve already had some great fishing weeks so far in 2023, but today’s Ling fishing was pretty spectacular. Better than even last week. We expect tomorrow’s outing for ling to be just as good. You can see some of the catches in the pictures below. Last night, we also went out for our night fishing trip, and the blues and bass were out in FORCE – pretty much all of our guests took home something amazing to eat the next few days.

Take a look at some of our pictures from today’s and yesterday’s trips:

Great times as always. We hope you’re able to join us next time. We are sailing 7am to 3pm for Ling, and then sailing again at 7pm for blues and other night fishing catches. Come join us! Call captain Anthony at 347 952 1442 or captain Tony at 646-413-1643.

Fishing Report 5-30-23 – Blues and Bass Biting

This year, we keep on seeing some really solid fishing when out on the water. It’s been cold during our night trips, but the fish keep biting. The last couple of nights, our guests have been catching Blues and Bass, and in the mornings – when it’s been warmer – we’ve had guests picking up a lot of ling.

Take a look at some of the catches from yesterday.

The season started a bit slow a few months ago, but the way it has picked up has been solid. Haven’t really had many bad days yet, and the riders have been making some really large catches – and some delicious meals – after they’ve disembarked the boat. Join us next time.
