Block Island & Outer Banks Cod
Capt Carl reports an extremely slow day on the Viking Starship. We started off the morning in the same zone and on the first drift we had some cod and a nice pollack coming over the rail. It looked like a promising start to the day, however the next drift saw fewer fish, and eventually zero fish. The reason was once again a big seal showed up in the zone and scattered them. From there we went into search mode only finding 2 more keepers for the day. It was very tough. Frank Deluca from Staten Island, NY took first place in the pool with a 6 lb cod fish and William Morris from Rockpoint, NY took second with a slightly smaller cod.
