Sun Oct 13 – Block Island Jumbo Porgies and Knothead Sea Bass

Captain Dave reports a challenging but ultimately rewarding day on the Viking Starship.  We did manage some Porgies but every time we got onto the Porgy bite we were bedeviled by the Dogfish and had to move. The Dogfish were the major problem today.  Anglers did pick up some nice Sea Bass, but the best was yet to come.  We managed to get some lovely Pollock,  7-8 Cod in the 7-12 pound range and a few Bluefish.  The first place pool winner was Anthony Bennett from Bristol PA  with a 2.7 pound Scup.  Second place in the pool went to Dennis Harrington from Miller Place NY with a 12 pound Cod.
