Fishing Reports

Block Island Cod & Sea Bass – Limited Passenger Capt Steven Sr reports a tough day on the Viking Star, but we put a catch together. We had a lot of dogs in the morning so we moved off to keep clear of them and had a pick of Sea Bass, some Cod, lots of Porgies, Bluefish and a Bonita. A real mixed bag! When the wind finally dropped out we drifted and we saw some really nice catches with nice big Sea Bass and eliminated the dogfish. The drifting produced better fishing today than anchoring. The Cod pool winner was Tony Ho from Queens, NY with a 12 pounder. The Sea Bass pool winner was Jonathon Gomez from Hampton Bays, NY with a 4.2 pounder.

The first place pool winner was Mike Collins from Newport, RI with a 3.5 lb Porgy. The second place pool winner was Siu Ching from New York, NY with a 12 lb Cod.

There were also a few Cod as well. The pool winner was Gho Ghan from Queens with a 3.16 lb Porgy.
