Capt Dave reports a good day on the Viking Star. We stayed mostly by the lighthouse and the fishing was really good to start out. We had big Porgies on one drift. When the tide started to run hard went to the east. We found plenty of Porgies, they were just not as big. We then tried to the South for SeaBass where it was really good earlier in the week. There was a ton of action, but there were mostly small SeaBass and a lot of small Porgies. All in all a lot of action and everyone went home with plenty of fish. The pool winner was Jeff Lin from Bayside, Queens with a 2.3 lb Scup.
