Capt Steven Sr reports an Outstanding Day on the Viking Star with fish on every drop! There were keepers and shorts all day long. The mates were busy filleting Cod on the way in and plenty of anglers went home without having them cleaned. Mavros “the cook” stepped outside at the right time. He dropped down and immediately had double header 8 lb Cod. After that he dropped right down and brought up another double header 8lber and a monster 28 1/2 Cod! In the end he had 7 Cod on 4 drifts. There was a lot more bait in the area and the Cod were green. We also had a bunch of Bergalls and some Mackerel. The first place pool winner was Karl Nilsen from Sag Harbor, NY with 16.5 Cod. The second place pool winner was Ron Lawyer…

Capt Steven Jr reports a decent day seeing Cod everywhere we went, but not in any big numbers. We picked away for most of the morning with a mix of keepers and shorts. Mid day things slowed down a bit then we picked a few more fish at the end of the day. Chris Montone was high hook with 7 keepers. The first place pool went to Michele Fronda from Brooklyn, NY with a 9 lb Cod and second place went to Frank Daskalakis from Brooklyn, NY with a 7 lb Cod.
