Heather from the Black Hawk office reports a great week of fishing! Tuesday’s porgy trip was a pit of a pick, and we had to work a little harder at it, but there was still plenty of quality fish caught. By Wednesday, the bite picked back up and we were catching jumbo sized scup all day long. A few weakfish in the mix, and a few bluefish too! Thursday’s private charter was fantastic, with loads of porgies, a few blues, and some weakfish. By Friday, it was beautiful weather and excellent fishing, with loads of porgies coming over the rails! Saturday had a full boat limit of porgies, again with weakfish in the mix.
The squid fishing was nothing short of spectacular. Wednesday’s trip was incredible, with the squid biting before it even got dark, and continuing all night, making for full buckets and coolers all around. We didn’t think it could get any better….until it did on Friday! It was, simply put, the best squid fishing we’ve seen. Again, starting in the daylight and continuing for the entire trip. Simply phenomenal fishing. We hope to add a few more squid trips, based on the weather, in the coming week. Stay tuned, these trips sell out in minutes!
Our trips continue to be by reservation only at this time. Just like last year, 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!
We are currently booking dates for private charters, but they are filling quickly, so be sure to email Heather to get your date before it’s sold out. Private charters are a great, affordable way to get out with your family, friends, or business! We have 1 date left for a May charter, and only a few left for June- so be sure to get your dates soon!
