Tue Aug 15- Montauk Lighthouse Porgies & Sea Bass
Capt. Dave reports a slower start to today’s trip, most likely due to the weather. We then started to see a lot of action when the sun came up but a lot of fish caught were on the smaller side. We kept at it and started to catch very well with a lot of large Porgies coning over the rails along with some really nice keeper Sea bass. We are definitely sailing tomorrow at 5am and the weather looks good. The office will open at 4am for ticket sales and check in.

Mon Aug 14- Montauk Lighthouse Porgies & Sea Bass
Capt Dave reports a very good day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. We took a ride down the beach to start off the morning, trying to avoid the flooding tide. We had some decent action around there with a lot more little fish than we have been seeing, but everyone had a handful of nice size Porgies with a few SeaBass mixed in. After a few drifts we worked our way back to the Lighthouse and the conditions cleared and made for some very good fishing, with a lot larger Porgies and SeaBass. No jumbos on the boat today, but we definitely had some large sized fish. The pool winner today with Tony Zheng with a 2 1/4 lb Porgy.
