Thur Nov 17 - 30-50 Mile Wreck Cod/Sea Bass

Capt Steven Jr reports another great trip fishing the offshore wrecks with a load of big sea bass, a nice shot of cod and some other wreck dwellers in the mix. We had some dogs on the shallower wrecks but everyone was pretty well loaded up by then. We weighed one of the bigger sea bass of the day and it weighed in at 6.8 lbs! The cod were good sized as well and we had a mix of scup, ling and hake too!

Mon Nov 14-Block Island Bottom-Cod, Sea Bass, Blackfish

We had another good trip fishing around Block. We started off sea bassing on our first drop where we had good fishing everywhere we went. Everyone had their limit of nice sea bass and some scup in the mix, but the cod were scarce again, but we did find a few. Then we went inshore black fishing and had a couple fish on each drop, but the super moon tide into the wind had everything screwed up. It was tough conditions but we still put a good day together.

Sun Nov 13 - Rusty Belly

Rusty Belly
Capt Steven Sr reports we put together a good day considering the rough conditions with a strong westerly wind. Our first few drops were a pick, but our last drop was very good with a couple fish from 7-10 lbs with everyone getting their limit. We were only able to make one drop on a wreck the way home due to rough conditions and caught a handful of sea bass, a couple of cod and some weakfish.

Sat Nov 12 - Block Island Bottom - Cod/Sea Bass/Blackfish

Capt Steven Jr. reports that we put together another good day of bottom fishing on the Viking Fivestar. The sea bass are back to chewing their heads off after last weeks ground swell that slowed the bite down. Black fishing got a bit better too, around Block we're seeing a bunch more keepers then we have been. The cod fish remain far and few in between, only seeing a couple keepers and a handful of shorts. But the sea bass fishing sent everyone home with a load of fillets.

Thur Nov 10 - 30 to 50 Mile Wreck Specia

Capt Steven Jr reports that we had a phenomenal wreck trip today!! We only had to make 2 drops to have the boat loaded with jumbo sea bass! We made a third drop to look for a couple more cod and ended up releasing a bunch of big sea bass. There was a better sign of cod today on the wrecks and we had a couple ling, hake, scup and some blues come up. We came in a little early today because the coolers were full!! Good to see some quality cod around and I think we could have had more if we could have gotten through all of the sea bass. Looking forward to getting back out there!

Wed Nov 9 - Block Island Bottom – Cod/Sea Bass/ Blackfish

Capt Steven reports that we had another picky day fishing around Block today. We had a couple of fish everywhere we went and found better fishing as the day went on. In the end everyone had a nice load of sea bass with some cod and scup in the mix.

Tue Nov 8 - Rusty Belly

Capt Steven Jr reports that we sailed with light crowd and put together a decent catch today on the Viking Fivestar. The black fishing had slower action then we saw on our last trip. But by mid day everyone had their limit of black fish with a couple fish around 8 lbs. Then we shot offshore to go sea bassing the bite was slower than it has been. We checked a lot of spots and only found a few fish here and there. We had a big ground swell from the east which seemed to effect the fishing.
