Night Striped Bass Jig & Eel Combo Captain Ant reports a very solid Bass trip at 6p Saturday.  The conditions were, well sort of evil on the ride.  NE wind an east swell made it uncomfortable for the fisherman, but not the rock slobs.  We had a steady pick while we had tide and landed two Behemoth Bass.  Kevvin Show too the pool with a monster at 47.6lbs and Jim Sincebaugh took second with a 40.2lber.  We had over 10 fish in the 33-38lb range as well.  Mikey Nelson limited to 35. Full Day Fluke and Sea Bass Captain Carl reports a great morning on the full day fluke boat. We had all quality flatties and nice sea bass coming up, with a couple managing to catch their limit of fluke, and one guy with his limit of both! Then…

Block Island Behemoth Capt. Ant reports our hunt for the Beasts for the East was Bassacret!!!!  Barring the first few drifts we absolutely crushed them with 5-8 Behemoths getting stuck with the gaffs on every drift.  85% of the fish were over 30lbs including a pair from Hanging Chad that weight 30 and 36lbs, No disrespect to Chad, but that was nothing.  We had 5 fish over 40lbs this trip.  Eddie Kartar took the pool with a 43.6 and also had a 33 and 25 (orl).  Guiseppe Lombardi had a 42.1 and a 37, Lawrence Wong had 42.0, Michael Nelson had a 41.8, a 37 and 29lber, and Nancy Belermo had a 40 even.  Flat out sick.  Gary “Bigfish”Young also had 3 to 36lbs as did Dr. Jay Zieglerto 36lbs…..Outstanding work by the best bass crew in the universe…Eric, Justin,…

Night Striped Bass Jig & Eel Capt Ant reports a half n half bass trip last night. Half awful, half insane. We started jigging at the end of the ebb and it was slow. Few blues, few scup but not much action. Sat thru the slack and finally had some flood, nada. We made a move and it paid off for those who took our advice. We had an hour of chaos that landed beautiful moo cow linesiders. Nicole Cook had her limit, chris Luke and Sam each had mid 30lbers. Gary Bigfish Young also had one in the 30s. But the King of the night was 11 year old RJ DelPercio. First the young bassmaster landed a 26lber. He said it was just to heat up the gears in his reel to prepare for what came next. A five…

Jig &Eel Combo Now for Saturday night 6p trip report. Mayhem, chaos, children screaming, anglers running, mates, galley wench and Captain sprinting and gaffing. It was awesome!!! We had 3 totally insane drifts that boated over close to 40 bass of the extra large size. We had a great crowd of anglers that wanted to learn and then apply their learnings to catch a trophy bass and they did. Young children, Moms, first-timers all worked together as we drifted through one of the biggest schools of stripers I’ve ever seen on the machine…the screen was red from bottom to the top and it was all bass. Here are the notables: Brett Marshman 44lbs and another addition to our Moo Cownter as well as the pool Tom T. and Chris Gainer each with 36lbers although Chris’s fish dipped lower on the…

Block Island Behemoths Capt. Ant reports a Behemoth night on the Behemoth grounds.  It was exactly what we were hoping.  15 Trophy Bass landed over the trip.  By no means was it a bail job, and we were attacked by some whopper choppers as well, but when we had the tide…WOW..one biggun after another.  We took 5 back to the dock for weigh-ins.  Here is the list: Chad 38.3lbs (disciple of Jonny Jesus of the Elbow) Chris Goggola 40.2lbs JB Breitstone 40.3lbs (2nd place Pool) Jen Blomquist 39.5lbs (perfect technique even with JB’s coaching:):)) Joe Stratmann 44.4lbs (Pool Winner) Add another 3 to the Moo Cownter.
