Sun Oct 20 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead Sea Bass
Captain Dave reports a pretty alright day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. We pretty much spent are day fishing up close to the island, making drift after drift. Conditions were beautiful today and we saw a lot of action with some really nice sized Porgies and a few nice sized SeaBass. We did have to pick through a lot of throwback SeaBass and Mackerell, but the Mackerell seem to be lessening. We only saw a couple Striped Bass on the boat today. The first prize pool winner went to Fernando Flores from Brooklyn, NY with a 3 lb Porgy. The edible pool winner went to Abel Najera from Fairview, NJ with an 8 lb Striped Bass. We are definitely sailing again tomorrow at 5am for our Block Island Jumbo Porgies and SeaBass.

Sat Oct 19 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead Sea Bass
Capt Dave reports a pretty good day of fishing on the Viking Starship. The tide finally seemed to backdown a bit follow the Hunter’s Full Moon tide we’ve had the past couple days so we were able to get into some of our usual spots up close to the island and fish in that shallow water that we like. We got onto a nice steady pick of mixed sized Porgies and SeaBass. When the tide started to slack off we made a move offshore and got onto a bit bigger sized SeaBass, only a a handful of nice ones out there, but definitely in the large range. When the tide started to come back on we finished off out day back close to the island with our same steady medium to large sized Porgies and SeaBass. We are definitely sailing…

Fri Oct 18 – Block Island Fall Jumbo Porgies & Knothead Sea Bass
Capt Dave reports a tough day of fishing on the Viking Starship today. This mornings swell with the full moon tide made more difficult fishing conditions for our first few hours. The fish were definitely there and biting, but it was hard to get on them. Once the tide eased down midway through the trip we got a good shot in of mixed sized Porgies and SeaBass. Nothing too large or jumbo in either category, but we managed to get a nice fill to everyone’s coolers. The first prize pool winner today went to Cesar Guzman from Philadelphia, PA with a 2. 7 lb Porgy. We will be sailing again tomorrow for our Block Island Porgies and SeaBass at 5am on the Viking Starship, our check-in office will be open at 4am.
