Heather from the Black Hawk office reports that summer is flying by! Be sure to get out here and join us before the summer is gone!
We had some beautiful weather this week, and the porgy fishing remained good. The triggerfish were aggressive this week, and many customers were getting the bite. Lots of porgies, as usual, with a good mix of seabass as well. Our fluke trip was a little slower, but the quality improved from last week. Some nice fish coming over the rails! The bluefishing remains hit or miss based on the tide, with some trips being tough and others better. Saturday morning showed some of the nicest weather we’ve seen with good fishing too! Our Saturday afternoon kids trip had a bunch of youngsters out there reeling in the porgies all afternoon. We love these trips and hope you can join us on one of them before the summer ends! Congrats to Libby M, who was the winner of our weekly Capt. Scott’s Saturday giveaway.
We had another beautiful night for our Saturday sunset cruise. As always, these events are fundraisers for local nonprofit groups in our community. Thanks to all who come out and support these awesome organizations and enjoy a beautiful night out on the water! Speaking of community, did you see the story on Channel 8 about our food drive? We are honored to be able to help the community in this way! Congrats to Mike S, who was our winner in our weekly drawing in our summer food drive. It’s our latest Black Hawk and the Community program- just bring the specified food items for our food drive, and have your name entered in the drawing. Due to popularity and demand from our local community groups for food, we will continue this for the remainder of August. Many thanks to those who have entered- we’ve always said it, but we have the best customers around! Check our website and Facebook page for more info!.
We’re sailing 7 days a week, so be sure to check our calendar online and grab a ticket for your trip! We look forward to seeing everyone soon!
