Block Island Bottom Cod, Sea Bass, & Blackfish – Viking Fivestar Capt Steven Jr. reports another good day of fishing on the Viking Fivestar! The seabass fishing was once again phenomenal! Tons of jumbos all around, easy limits of all fish, weighing in around 3 lbs or better with a bunch over 5 lbs. We didn’t find much as far as cod, which was surprising for the amount of area we fished.  But the seabass were so thick it was hard to keep a bait on the bottom for long. By mid day, we shot inshore to look for some black fish and only found a couple nice ones, a couple shorts and a lot more seabass we had to throw back. We are sailing this Thursday on a 30-50 mile wreck trip and we still have a couple spots…
