Capt Dave reports excellent fishing today on the Viking Starship. Dave reports that it was the best trip so far this season. They had tons of action over at the Lighthouse with mostly large sized Porgies. After filling up on the Scup they made their way east and found a nice pile of SeaBass. There was a better ratio of keeper to throwbacks and it only seems to be getting better. We had one Cod fish on the boat. The first place pool winner went to Frankie Cruz with a 2.5 lb Porgy. The edible pool winner went to Muscelo with a 3.5 lb Cod fish. We will most definitely be sailing for the 5am Montauk Lighthouse Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass tomorrow Monday July 11th.
