Capt Steven Jr reports that we put a good trip together with the guys from Watermill Building Supply. We started off Blackfishing and picked away at them putting a decent catch together. From there we went off SeaBassing and again had a pick, but we still got our limit. We also had about a half dozen Cod. After that we made another Blackfish drop and picked a few more nice ones before we called it a day.
Fri Nov 15 – Montauk Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass
Capt Dave reports decent fishing on the Viking Starship. We had a good mixed bag of mostly Porgies and SeaBass. We also had about 10 Cod and a bunch of Bluefish and not very many dogfish.

Fri Nov 15 – Cod & SeaBass – Viking Star
Capt Steven Sr reports an all out Fall Fishing Bonanza Slam on the Viking Star! We had a full boat limit of SeaBass with four between 6.0 and 6.2 lbs weighed in. There were about 14 Cod up to 16.4 lbs and Blackfish up to 8.7 lbs. It was tough to get through the SeaBass to the Cod and Blackfish. They ate everything – crabs, jellyworms – whatever we put down. All in all you couldn’t ask for a better day! The Cod pool winner was Gary with a 16.4 lber. The SeaBass pool winner was Jay D from Brooklyn, NY with a 6.2 lber. The Blackfish pool winner was John Rotondi from Brooklyn, NY with an 8.7 lber. This trip is cancelled for tomorrow Saturday, November 16th.
Thurs Nov 14 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass
Capt Dave reports an excellent day on the Viking Starship. Fishing was very good with SeaBass up to 5 lbs and a plentiful mix of medium to large Porgies. Our own Alex Briand was high hook on the Cod fish today with four up to 18lbs on a diamond jig and his friend Todd had three Cod, with the largest one caught today at 20 lbs. We had about a dozen Cod around the boat. We also had some Bluefish and luckily the dogfish were not much of a bother. The pool winner was S. Christoforidis from Astoria, NY with a 2.3 lb Porgy.

Steven Sr’s Cod and Sea Bass trip from last Saturday, 11/9 did see quite a few more Cod then we have been seeing, as well as all the Sea Bass you can catch! Evagelos Gavalas was the Cod pool winner with an 11.57 pounder. He told us that the trip was amazing!

Mon Nov 11- Ultra Limited Blackfish/Sea Bass Special
Captain Steven Sr. reports a horrible day on the Viking Star. Horrible for the fish…….great for anglers. We started the morning Blackfishing. It was close to the end of the tide and we just kept steadily picking away at some quality Blackfish. Those Jersey boys……there were four of them………. brought 14 Blackfishon board between them. They really showed us how it’s done. Close to boat limit on keeper Sea Bass. Even though not targeted on this special Veteran’s Day half price trip, we managed some keeper Cod as well. First place in the Blackfish pool went to one of those Jersey boys, Don Wetzel, from Riverdale, NJ with a 9.3 pound Blackfish. First place in the Sea Bass pool went to Zhi Chun Wen of Brooklyn NY with a 4.4 pound Sea Bass. A great day with beautiful weather and…

Captain Dave reports another good day of fishing on the Viking Starship. It was a little windier and a little rougher today and the Dogfish were a minor annoyance.

First place in the pool went to Ignacio Castello of Queens with a 2.6 pound Porgy. Second place went to Kuen Li of Brooklyn with an 8 pound Cod.
