Heather from the Black Hawk office reports that it was another week with some up and down fishing. Our weekly bluefish trip was once again spectacular, with big blues coming over the rails all day. Only a few more of these trips left, so come join us! Our bottom fishing trips had to contend with some wind and strong tides this week, so some trips were tougher than others. The highlight of the week was the opening of blackfish season on Thursday, with some nice keepers coming up to help round out the coolers. If our first two trips were any indication of what’s to come, it looks to be a good blackfish season. Don’t forget, our weekday trips will have crabs available now, so if you’d like to target some blackfish with the porgies and seabass, come join us!
We’d like to offer a special thanks to everyone who joined us on Saturday evening for our sunset cruise and seal watch- we were able to raise over $1,500 to send to North Carolina to help the relief efforts from Hurricane Helene. We are honored to be able to help the community in this way- even if it’s a little further than our local community this time. Thank you for all of your support!
As always, new tickets for each week will be posted online on Monday night at 8pm throughout the season. We’ve started posting our November Block Island blackfish/bottom fishing combo trips, so plan on joining us soon!
We look forward to seeing everyone soon!
