Capt Steven Jr reports that we put together another great day of bottom fishing around Block Island on the Viking Fivestar. We had a load of nice Seabass, a good shot of Blackfish and a few Cod.

We are sailing Thursday thru Sunday and we have limited openings in November, so give us a call at the office and get booked while you still can. (631)668-5700 / vikingfleet.com

Capt Dave reports a decent day on the Viking Starship. We had a good shot early with a mix of Porgies and SeaBass up close to the island to about 100 feet out. There were plenty of fish in the shallows and we drifted until it got too fast. We then went out to the deep and anchored up. We had a handful of Cod and some nice sized SeaBass. The dogfish were not much of a bother today. The first place pool winner was Michael Bolton with a 2.5 lb Porgy. Franklin Tejada won the edible pool with a 10 lb Cod. All trips are sold out this weekend! Please give us a call 631-668-5700 or book online at vikingfleet.com to get on these popular trips!!

Capt JR reports a good day on the Viking Starlite. Plenty of nice sea bass in the morning with a few Cod mixed in. Later in the day we caught some nice Blackfish in the deeper water.

The SeaBass pool winner was Stuart Caruso from Williamsport, NY with a 3 1/2 lber.

Capt Dave reports a pretty good day on the Viking Starship. It was solid SeaBass to start, making it tough to get to the Porgies. Fortunately there were very few dogfish today. We pulled it out on the last drop with a steady pick of medium to large Porgies with pretty much everyone getting their limit. There were also a handful of Cod. Not a lot, but good sized from 10 to 20 lbs. There was a tie for the pool between Delroy Carter from Amityville, Long Island and Mark Wright from Mt. Vernon, NY with 2.5 lb Porgies.

Capt Dave reports a pretty good day despite numerous dogfish who would not leave us alone during the first few hours of the trip.  We had to work a little harder as the water was still a little muddy after the storm but we stuck at it and by day’s everyone had their Porgy limit. The Sea bass bit very very well and all anglers landed their limit. We also had  Cod came up on almost every drop, the largest weighing in at around 20lb. Overall a great day and Capt. Dave predicts it will get even better over the next few days as the weather improves. Donald Hyde of Bronx NY won today’s Porgy pool with a 2lb Porgy. Jasper James caught a beautiful 20 lber to take the Cod pool . We are sailing daily at 5am. Check…

We had some Cod on every drop with the biggest weighing in at 18 lbs. We again had the quality sized Seabass and a load of Ling.

Capt Dave reports a good day on the Viking Starship. We anchored up today in the deep water and had plenty of Porgies and Sea Bass. Not seeing many Jumbos though.

First place in the pool went to Harvey Scott of Brooklyn, NY with a 2.7 pound Porgy. Edible pool went to Abel Ventura of Brentwood, NY with a 12 pound Cod. This trip is CANCELLED for tomorrow.

The Blackfish pool was by Nigel Crawford with an 8.3 lber. The SeaBass pool was won by Mark Perry with a 4.7 lber. This trip is CANCELLED for tomorrow.

Capt Dave reports a good day of fishing on the Viking Starship. We started in the shallow water up close to Block Island and picked away at Porgies and SeaBass.

There were also about a dozen Cod up to 15 pounds. The first place pool winner was Barry Cameron from Brooklyn, NY with a 2.5 lb Porgy. The edible pool winner was Barry Wauchope from Babylon, NY with a 12 lb Cod.

Capt Dave reports a tough day of fishing on the Viking Starship. It was quieter than we have been seeing in the shallow water by Block Island. Resulting in a slow pick of mostly Porgies.

The pool winner was John Pratt from the Bronx with a 2 1/2 lb Porgy. The Block Island Porgy & Seabass trip is CANCELLED for tomorrow, Friday Oct 30th.
