Montauk

Great start to the day with fish to 30lbs. Now fishing daily. Available for Private Charter.

COD!!! Capt Steven Jr reports a good day, but a bit slower then it has been the last few days. It was a good pick of fish early in the day, but shortly after sunrise the bite died. From there we did a lot of looking and only found a couple more fish scattered around for the rest of the day. James W. Schneider was high hook with 12 keepers with most guys averaging 3 to 4 keepers.

Capt Steven Sr reports that we started with a pick of Cod. The second fish over the rail was the first place pool winner at 21.2 lbs. We continued the morning with a slow pick for a few hours with most fish coming up at the aft end of the boat. High hook had 5 Cod and some anglers ended up with 2 or 3 fish. We also saw a couple of Ling and Bergalls. We read bait on the machines, but we just couldn’t get them to chew like they have been. The New Moon possibly had an effect on the fishing. We will be back at it tomorrow! The first place pool winner was Paul Ripperger with the 21.2 lb Cod. The second place pool winner was Eddie Eurell with a 9 1/2 lb Cod.

COD!!! Capt Steven Jr reports another slammer day with a light crowd and limits all around! The fish bit fast and furious early, but slowed to a pick then died right out by mid morning, but we had what we needed by then. We tried a couple other drops to check out what was around and didn’t find much, then headed in a little early. High hook had 22 Cod (orl) up to 24lbs and we had a handful of Pollock in the mix as well. Weather is beautiful the rest of the week and we will have two boats sailing daily! Give us a call and get in on the hot bite before it’s too late! The Viking Fivestar is sold out thru Friday. Reservations a must as trips are filling up! Give us a call at (631)668-5700 or…
