Heather from the Black Hawk office reports a good week of fall fishing! Monday’s wet weather didn’t stop the fish, and our dedicated anglers filled the coolers with porgies and seabass. The rest of the week was good, although we had some strong tides to contend with and couldn’t always fish where we wanted. Friday’s group wanted to do some bluefishing, and it didn’t disappoint- blues, striped bass and seabass were coming over the rails all day long. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate for the holiday weekend. We got Saturday’s trip in, but the windy conditions made it difficult to get where we wanted to fish. While we still put in the effort and had fish on the boat, it wasn’t what we’ve been accustomed to in previous weeks. We lost both Sunday and Monday due to the windy conditions.
As usual, this time of year is all about the weather. We’re looking forward to better weather and more good fishing as the fall progresses. We’ll be adding some of our popular “blackfish/bottom fishing” combo trips- these fill up fast, so be sure to grab your tickets as soon as you see them online. The first two trips will be Tuesday, October 26 and Thursday, October 28. These trips leave at 5am and return at 5pm.
As always, be sure to check our Facebook page for daily reports and updates.
Our trips continue to be by reservation only at this time. As always, tickets will be available to purchase on our website on Monday evenings at 8:00 pm. We will post tickets for our trips one week at a time, approximately two weeks ahead of time. All trips will be by reservation only, so be sure to grab your tickets early!
