Wed Jan 21

Local Cod

Captain Dave reports that we started the day with plenty of action but unfortunately very few keepers. We worked our way around and made a few stops stopping on a wreck where we had a good shot of Pollack and cod. Throughout the day we had shots of fish here and there but they were mostly on the smaller side. Capt. Dave decided to put in some extra time and all of a sudden one area  turned on producing double headers from 8 to 12 pounds. We also caught a nice shot of Cod in the 12 to 18 pound class. Both jigs and bait worked well. Jessie James from Bridgetown NJ had three double headers and was the first place winner of today’s Cod pool with a beautiful 18 pounder! Second place went to Tony Cruz of Brooklyn NY with a 13lb Cod. It was a very exciting end to a good day of fishing. We had many smiling anglers coming off the Viking Starship. We are definitely sailing tomorrow Friday Jan 23 at 3am so call for a reservation at 631-668-5700 or come on down. The ticket office will be open at 2am for ticket sales.
