Heather from the office shares that despite some ups and downs with the weather, overall it was a pretty good week on the Black Hawk!
Our trips earlier in the week were good, with nice porgies and seabass coming over the rail. However once the churned up dirty water from the passing storms made its way in the bite slowed to a pick. Tuesday morning showed better results with the bottom fishing, and Tuesday afternoon’s private charter showed excellent bluefishing. We had many kids on board, and they were sore and tired after reeling in big blues all night long! Our fluke trip on Thursday turned into a combo trip due to the wind, but our awesome anglers had a great time catching bass and blues before we switched over and caught some nice seabass and keeper fluke. Not the nicest weather day, but a good day nonetheless. We lost both trips on Friday, as well as Saturday morning, but our charter on Saturday afternoon was back to normal with the bluefish and some bass in the mix as well.
The weather even cleared up for a beautiful sunset for our Saturday night sunset cruise! Join us for our next sunset cruise on August 17th. These trips are all part of our Black Hawk and the Community program, and we’re honored to be able to help the community in a meaningful way.
New tickets for each week will be posted online on Monday night at 8pm, just like in past years. Be sure to check out our calendar so you see what’s coming up!
We look forward to seeing everyone soon!
