Fri July 22 – 1/2 Day Fishing PM

Wed July 20- Whale Watch

Passengers listening closely at the bow could hear their clicks and whistles as the dolphins swam alongside…

Fri July 22 – Montauk Lighthouse Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass

Capt Dave reports a great day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. Porgy fishing was just about as good as it gets. We had very good fishing today around the Lighthouse, there was a mix of more medium sized Porgies, but the bite was on. After filling up on Porgies we set out SeaBass fishing and it was excellent. Everyone seemed to have their limit of SeaBass and the size was much better than its been. There were plenty of Mackerell on the boat today and even a couple keeper Fluke. Our first place pool winner went to Mr. Parks with a 3lb Porgy. We are sailing tomorrow (Saturday July 23rd) and spaces are limited, don’t forget to make your reservations!
