Jig Eel Combo Night Bass Capt Ant reports a very frustrating 6a Bass trip.  The fish were there, they were biting, but it was just one of those trips where whatever could go wrong went wrong.  Tangles, missed bites, break-offs…uggh we all know some days we have to make the most of a bite because sometimes you only get one.  We landed about 20% of hook-ups/ bites.  That being said we had another molly-whopper thanks to Matt Stanton.  A 40.3lber, Matts largest Bass ever.  Gary “BigFish” had a beauty in the upper 30’s.  All fish caught were quality at 25lbs or higher. Midnight Madness Capt Ant reports the MADNESS from the earlier trip quickly vanished as another euphoric madness took over.  During our first drift and we knew it would be game-on for the entire tide and for the most…

Night Striped Bass Full Moon Special Well it was a slower night for the raging flood tide, not as we had hoped on the super moon.  Fish were marked but a very slow pick…it seemed we got one here one there all night.  Thomas Aiello took 1st with a 39lb slob and Jack Miov for the 3rd time in 3 trips had his luck hold up with a 38.3lber. Full Day Fluke and Sea Bass Capt Carl reports a decent day in the full day boat. Again, we were in search of the big flukes we have been seeing and again, we caught some, but not in the great numbers we have been seeing. Some anglers did good, and some not so good. We did see a lot more sea bass than we have been seeing, with some limits. Overall…

Jig &Eel Combo Capt Ant reports a grind last night on the bass front. We put a few in the boat but the blues were more abundant and definitely caused havoc, albeit fun havoc. Wind against tide also effected our drift as the first 2 hours seemed as if we were anchored. For the Big Man Jeff Thompson however it was a special night. We stayed a bit later and on the second to last drift of the night Jeff battled and landed a 50.5lb MooCowasaurus. Way to go Big Man. We had a few around the 30 mark, not a bad fishing trip, just a slower one on the bass front. Full Day Fluke and Sea Bass Captain Carl reports good, quality fluke today on the full day boat. The size of the fluke were amazing. Every drift we…

Block Island Behemoth Capt Ant reports: Well we’ve used epic fishing, we’ve used Bassacre, we’ve used bloodbath, but last night was simply the best bass fishing trip ever experienced by everyone in the boat.  And there were guys fishing for bass for 50 years. We were 2 fish away from our limit after 6 drifts. 90% were over 30lbs. We had 5 over 40 including pool winner for the second time in a week Jack Miov from port Washington with a 47.8lber. Jackie G from port jeff had a 46.2lber. Pictures attached, vids on Facebook, tired anglers slept with smiles, Capt and crew couldn’t be more thankful for natures gift this season.

Ant reports another amazing week of nailing both trophy bass and plenty of them.  13 Behemoths were landed last week over 40lbs and countless others in the 30’s.  It’s just insane fishing right now and while the weather has kept the waters cool it seems the large body of bass have hunkered down in Montauk waters for the summer.  What would be even more insane is not taking…

Night Striped Bass Jig & Eel Combo Captain Ant reports a very solid Bass trip at 6p Saturday.  The conditions were, well sort of evil on the ride.  NE wind an east swell made it uncomfortable for the fisherman, but not the rock slobs.  We had a steady pick while we had tide and landed two Behemoth Bass.  Kevvin Show too the pool with a monster at 47.6lbs and Jim Sincebaugh took second with a 40.2lber.  We had over 10 fish in the 33-38lb range as well.  Mikey Nelson limited to 35.
