Capt Dave reports a fantastic day of fishing. We started off by the Lighthouse where we got tons of Porgies. While there we had some nice long drifts, and great conditions. By the time we were done there everyone had their fair share of Porgies. We decided to go Seabassing over by Block Island. We caught beautiful Seabass. We had to pick through a bit, but it was about quality and not quantity. Overall we had a great day of steady fishing and everyone went home happy. The pool winner was Santos Cruz from Roosevelt, NY with a 4 lb Porgy. The edible pool winner was Michael Bolton from Brentwood, NY with a 6lb Fluke.
