Night Striped Bass Capt. Ant reports a slow start to last nights trip but once we got the tide we had a BEHEMOTH BLAST for the last 2 and a half hours.  Overall the trip was fantastic with many of our regular guests catching multiple Moo Cows.  Practice makes perfect and these guys just know the way these big boys bite.  Chad the Shad had  4 to 35lbs,  George “new book our soon” Jehn had 4 to 37lbs and Gary “Big Fish” Young had 4 to 38lbs.  All retained their limit.  Joe Pagillo limited to 30, Dan Bender and Ivan Grvic each had 32lbers.  Scott Goldman had his limit as well but he landed a Behemoth at 40lbs .  Jimmy “Keepon Reeling” Thieling from Deer Park had his largest ever at 41.3lbs and that Behemoth took 2nd Place.   Scott…

Night Striped Bass Captain Ant reports a slower trip on the local bass front due to the storm muddied waters. We picked a few and all were beauties, but once the mud rolled in, it was over.

Jig &Eel Combo Now for Saturday night 6p trip report. Mayhem, chaos, children screaming, anglers running, mates, galley wench and Captain sprinting and gaffing. It was awesome!!! We had 3 totally insane drifts that boated over close to 40 bass of the extra large size. We had a great crowd of anglers that wanted to learn and then apply their learnings to catch a trophy bass and they did. Young children, Moms, first-timers all worked together as we drifted through one of the biggest schools of stripers I’ve ever seen on the machine…the screen was red from bottom to the top and it was all bass. Here are the notables: Brett Marshman 44lbs and another addition to our Moo Cownter as well as the pool Tom T. and Chris Gainer each with 36lbers although Chris’s fish dipped lower on the…

Block Island Behemoths Capt. Ant reports a Behemoth night on the Behemoth grounds.  It was exactly what we were hoping.  15 Trophy Bass landed over the trip.  By no means was it a bail job, and we were attacked by some whopper choppers as well, but when we had the tide…WOW..one biggun after another.  We took 5 back to the dock for weigh-ins.  Here is the list: Chad 38.3lbs (disciple of Jonny Jesus of the Elbow) Chris Goggola 40.2lbs JB Breitstone 40.3lbs (2nd place Pool) Jen Blomquist 39.5lbs (perfect technique even with JB’s coaching:):)) Joe Stratmann 44.4lbs (Pool Winner) Add another 3 to the Moo Cownter. I’d call last night a steady pick, but when your picking cows, it definitely makes for a fun evening!!!! Check out the pix and happy Viking anglers. Thanks for the return of Capt. Eric,…

Sunset Striper Slam Capt. Ant reports rod bending action started our night and lasted while we had tide. Monster blues were everywhere from the light to as far east as the eye could see. We had a few bail job drifts also picking monster porgys, jumbo sea bass and even a 5lb fluke. Bass were non-existent in the frenzy as we never had the brisk tide they feed on. All in all a solid jigging trip. Half Day Fluke Pm Capt Ant reports another solid fluke trip with copious amounts of sea bass and scup in the buckets as well. Christine the Dazzler Dassler had 3 beauty fluke and a bunch of biscuits to 4lbs.in Montauk Local Porgies and Sea Bass Captain Dave reports excellent fishing today!
