Wed Sept 17 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass

Capt Dave reports fine fishing on the Viking Starship. We had windy and rough conditions, so we anchored up close to Block Island in the calm water. We tried three spots and found plenty of Porgies. SeaBass were a slow pick today since we were not able to drift and we couldn’t get offshore. The first place pool winner was Ifa Gordon from the Bronx, NY with a 2.7 lb Scup. The edible pool winner was Milton Nelson from Long Island, NY with a 3.2 lb SeaBass.

Tue Sept 17 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead SeaBass

Capt Dave reports a good day on the Viking Starship. We started out anchored close to Block Island and had an excellent pick of Porgies with SeaBass mixed in. We then went offshore for a deep drop and only had a handfull of SeaBass, but there were a couple of Pollock. To finish the trip we moved inshore and had a nice steady pick of Large Porgies and Jumbo SeaBass. We did not have a pool with the small crowd.

Mon Sept 16 – Block Island Jumbo Porgies and Knothead Sea Bass
