Capt Dave reports a pretty decent day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. After being blown in from the wind following Hurricane Ophelia, we were finally able to get back out on our first trip and had a better day of fishing than expected. Fishing today was more quality over quantity with a slow…

Capt Dave reports a good day on the Viking Starship. We picked up where we left off yesterday and had nice sized Porgies again with good sized Sea Bass mixed in. Limits were retained by all anglers. We also had a few Cod and Fluke today. Unfortunately none of the large Cod were in the…

Our three day TNT trip on the Viking Star started out a little inconvenient with some windy conditions. However, we concentrated our efforts on the tuna grounds and spent the entire first day convincing the picky fish to bite. The fish were very line shy but we dropped down to light leaders and hooked a…

Capt Dave reports excellent fishing today on the Viking Starship. We started off our morning fishing some inshore spots and picked through lots of clouds of little porgies and a mix of seabass. We then worked our way offshore a bit into some deeper water where we got into some really nice fishing. There was plenty of action between large porgies, keeper seabass, and a lot of mackerell. Fishing was very steady today and we even had ourselves a couple of the false albacores. Overall a very good day of fishing, and we are sailing tomorrow, so come out before the weather comes in this weekend. The first prize pool winner went to Elric Jervis from the Bronx with a 2 3/4 lb. Porgy. The edible pool winner went to Ron Garvo on vacation from Santa Barbara, California with a…

Capt Dave reports a pretty good day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. We had a lot of action all around with fish just about everywhere we dropped own. There were a lot more medium sized fish in the mix, not quite throwbacks, but nothing very big. SeaBass fishing was good, with fish of…

Capt Dave reports great fishing today on the Viking Starship. There was a much better Porgy bite today. We caught well despite the rough conditions. It was good Sea Bass fishing as well. Plenty of both to be had today, but not much else to mention as far as edible species. The first place pool…

Capt Dave reports a great start to our first day of the Block Island Porgy and SeaBass fishing on the Viking Starship. Despite some rainy conditions we had a very good day of fishing with a steady pick all day. For our or first trip of the fall we did a lot of exploring and…

The End of an Amazing Season   To be honest, we weren’t sure what to expect on our final whale watch of the season. Although, whales and dolphins remain in the area, Hurricane Lee which passed far to our northeast, whipped up very high seas from Friday night into Saturday, and although conditions calmed for…

Capt JR reports a much improved afternoon of catching on the Viking Star. We took a long ride and found lots of life with SeaBass and Porgies keeping anglers busy all trip. Lots of action and everyone had fish in their buskets. The first prize pool winner went to Elizabeth Lanza from Oceanside, NY with a 2 lb. SeaBass.

Capt Dave reports a pretty decent day of fishing today on the Viking Starship despite the dirty water following Hurricane Lee. We did most our fishing closer to Block Island today as we found the water was much cleaner in this area. We had a mixed pick of Porgies and SeaBass of all different sizes…
