Capt Steven Sr. reports a more difficult afternoon of fishing today on the Viking Star. We had a battle with the breeze and a battle with the Shearwaters. We still managed to pick away at some Fluke, SeaBass and Porgies. We had a handful of good size Fluke on the boat and plenty of Porgies….

Capt Dave reports a great day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. The Porgy bite today was hot. We made a few drifts over by the Lighthouse and loaded up on Porgies mostly large sized and a few jumbos. After a few hours of Porgy fishing we worked our way to the East to target the SeaBass. We had a few keeper SeaBass, but a lot more Porgies out there and even ended up with half a dozen keeper Fluke on board. Overall good action today. The first place pool winner went to Amilcar Ramos with a 2.7 Porgy. The edible pool winner went to William Marsh with a 4lb SeaBass. Tomorrows 5am-Montauk Lighthouse Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass is cancelled. (Monday July 25th).

Captain Dave reports an excellent day of fishing today! Porgy fishing was very very good with mostly large and medium size Porgies coming over the rails today.

Captain Steven Sr. reports that we did not have best conditions today due to the left over ground swell. Fishing was slower than we have been seeing and we had a day of being surrounded by Sea Robbins ! Despite all this we put a catch together and  a nice shot of Sea Bass. Today’s…

Capt Steven Sr reports a better afternoon on the Viking Star. The fishing shaped up and we had action the whole trip. We had Fluke, SeaBass and Porgies. It was a mix of keepers and shorts. Everyone went home with a bag full of fillets. The first place pool winner was Matt Masters from Commack, NY with a 4.25 lb Fluke. The edible pool winner was Daniel Gibb from Northport, NY with a 3 lb Bluefish.

No better way to beat the heat than with a whale watch! Comfortable breezes at sea were joined by dozens of small pods of short-beaked common dolphins throughout the voyage (200-250 total), including several mother/calf pairs and juveniles. Passengers listening closely at the bow could hear their clicks and whistles as the dolphins swam alongside…

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!
