Captain Dave reports that in today’s perfect fishing conditions we caught a ton of Porgies! The fish landed were mostly in the medium or large size range with some Jumbos mixed in. We had plenty of action with most anglers catching their limit so Capt Dave headed off to the east to hit some Sea bass rocks and we were rewarded with plenty of keepers with everyone catching their limit. Today’s first place pool winner was Ricardo Capella of Brooklyn NY with a 3lb porgy.  Second place was taken by Moustafa Nosaed also of Brooklyn who landed a nice 2.4lb Sea bass. Happy 4th of July from us all here at Viking Fleet.

Finback whale! We left the dock at Montauk to look for whales and escape the heat.  Once we got into water with sea surface temperatures in the 63-640F, we relished the cool air. The winds were as predicted, SW at 15-20 knots, the seas were as predicted also at 3-4 feet. We headed SW 8 for…

Captain JR reports a slow afternoon of fishing on the Viking Starship .  We had a slow pick on most drifts and Fluke fishing just never turned on and we ended the day with significantly less keepers than we have been seeing.
