Capt Dave reports improved fishing from yesterday on the Viking Starship. We had a bunch of Sea Bass, Ling and Bergalls in the catch. Unfortunately no Porgies or Cod to be had today. It does look like things are coming back to life after the big blow. The pool winner was Noel Miranda from Roosevelt…

Capt Dave reports a very tough day on the Viking Starship. This was our first day out since last Sunday and we found very dirty water left over from the blow. Action was very limited finding only a few Porgies, some Sea Bass, a Ling and a couple of dogfish. Hopefully we will find cleaner water tomorrow! This was the last Porgy & Sea Bass trip and we will switch over to Block Island Mixed Bag until the end of the year. This trip will target all bottom dwellers around the waters of Block Island including Cod, Sea Bass, Porgies and whatever else we can find! We will be sailing tomorrow (Saturday, December 22) then we will be closed through Wednesday and sail Thursday, December 28th through Sunday, December 31st.

Capt Dave reports a tough day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. Most of the morning was very difficult to fish with the poor weather conditions rocking the boat making for little to no bite. We had a few fish mixed in but didn’t really get on them till the last hour to hour…

Capt JR reports a tough day on the Viking Star. The Sea Bass fishing was definitely not what it has been. However, the Blackfishing was definitely okay for those who knew what time it was. Plenty of guys had their limit with some beefy specimens in the mix. There’s still time to come on down and get your tog on before the season is over! The Blackfish pool winner was Theo Zmach from Westhampton Beach, NY with a 6 lber. The Sea Bass pool winner was Starto Uiboisev from Brooklyn, NY with a 4 lber.

Capt Dave reports a decent day on the Viking Starship. We caught them good today and saw more Porgies than we have been seeing. There were plenty of Sea Bass in the mix along with some Cod. The first place pool winner was Victor Morales with a 2 1/4 lb Porgy. The edible pool winner was Alex Miao with an 8 lb Cod. We are definitely sailing tomorrow. The bad weather is not expected to start until tomorrow evening. There is plenty of space available for the Block Island Porgy & Sea Bass trip. The Viking Fivestar is sailing for Blackfish, Sea Bass and Cod and there is one spot available. You can book yourself a reservation at vikingfleet.com. The office will open at 4am for check in and ticket sales.

Capt Dave reports a slower day on the Viking Starship. We did not see as many Porgies as we have been, maybe because of the rougher conditions today. Sea Bass were plentiful and we had a bunch of Cod as well. The pool winner was Calvin Blugh from Brooklyn, NY with a 6 lb Cod…

Capt Carl and Capt JR report EXCELLENT fishing on our Nantucket Wreck Christmas Cod and Sea Bass Spectacular! We started fishing just before sun-up and we fished until post sun-down and it was awesome! Giant XXXL Dinosaur Gaffer Sea Bass and plenty of Codfish mixed in, along with some mixed size Pollack and Giant Cunners,…

Capt Dave reports a good day on the Viking Star. Porgies bit well and they were mostly medium to large size with pretty much everyone retaining their limit. The Sea Bass weren’t chewing like yesterday, so it was tougher. Everyone managed a few though. There were also about a 1/2 dozen Cod. The first place pool winner was Rogelio Cua with a 2 lb Porgy. Edible pool winner was Hou Chan Li with an 8 lb Cod. All fishing is cancelled tomorrow due to the windy conditions expected.

Capt Dave reports a good day of fishing today on the Viking Star. We had a nice variety of fish today with the SeaBass still biting their heads off. We started our morning closer to the island and everyone managed to get a bucket of Porgies, most medium to large, no jumbos today. The SeaBass…
