Heart Of Darkness New Moon Ultra Ltd Capt Ant reports the Heart of Darkness New Moon Special was absolutely as predicted, for the most part. Once we got over the bar with the tide the bite was on….the catch, well that was another story. Don’t get me wrong it, it was a stellar night and many had their limits, like Kiss of Death John who had 3, Don Mitchell who had a hot hand late, Jesus of the Elbow also had 3 (orl). However we lost at least twice what we caught. At one point we had 7 on a drift and broke all off. Big fish, yes, improper tackle, yes, fighting tuna technique, yes, trying to catch rocks, you know it. Frustrating, oh by all means:):) That being said I believe every passenger had at least one and about…

Block Island Behemoth Capt Ant reports another very good trip to Behemothland. We had extremely difficult drifting conditions and while we didn’t catch our first fish until 4 hours into the trip, the bite finally turned on and delivered many moo cows and one Behemoth at 40.9lbs caught by Justin Alicea from Sleepy Hollow. Christos aka Fester took second with a 39lber and father in law Angelo D added a 31. The King of the night was Jose Splash Ruiz with 4 keepers to 35lbs. I guess that makes Paul Ryan the Queen with 3 to 36lbs. Each retained their limit. Don Mitchell was able to nail a high 30’s Moo Cow even with a bad wrist. Looking forward to Midnight Madness as timing should be perfect for the feeding frenzy. Half Day Fluke PM First & Second Place…

Night Striped Bass Jig and Eel Combo Capt Ant reports a slow night. Slow drift, slow ends of tide and slow fishing. That being said James Daniels from Brooklyn nailed a Behemoth at 49lbs. The rock slobs love the slow tide but unfortunately only James could get one to cooperate. Full Day Fluke and Sea Bass Captain Carl reports a decent day on the full day boat.
