Heather from the Black Hawk office reports that the week started off with a little bit of a pick early in the week, but improved as the week went on. Later in the week, the porgy fishing picked up and was red hot. As for the seabass, we had to pick through some shorts but it just keeps getting better. We had a special charter with a group of kids on Wednesday afternoon, and they had a blast catching the porgies and seabass. We love having kids on board with us, and are looking forward to some of our special family/kid trips this summer! Stay tuned for dates!
Our first night bass trips of the season showed great fishing! Some big fish and shorts were released, and we had some within the slot limit to keep. We’ll have a few more of these trips as the season goes on- they fill up quickly so be sure to grab your spots as soon as you see them!
Our After Work Special on Friday was tough- neither the bass or the blues wanted to cooperate which made for a rough trip. As a result we made some changes to the game plan and did some bottom fishing to keep the rods bending and put some quality scup and sea bass on ice for everyone.
The holiday weekend had us fishing in some alternate locations due to the weather, but we were still able to load up on the scup with some nice seabass as well.
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!
July and August private charters are filling quickly, so be sure to contact Heather and get your date before it’s sold out. Private charters are a great, affordable way to get out with your family, friends, or business!
