Montauk Spring Jumbo Porgies Capt Dave reports very good fishing on the Viking Star. We started out with a slow pick of smaller fish and we stayed on them and the fish got bigger and bigger as the morning went on. We mostly had porgies, but there were a few bluefish and some throw back sea bass mixed in. The largest porgies weighed in from 3.5 to 4 pounds. We are sailing daily at 4am. The office opens at 3am for ticket sales.

Montauk Spring Jumbo Porgies Captain Dave reports another slow day for porgy fishing aboard the Viking Star. The water was still pretty dirty, so we only manged a handful of porgies.
