Heather from the Black Hawk office reports that after being stuck at the dock for a few days last weekend, Tuesday was a solid day at Block Island. The catching was a little slower than we left it as the wind churned up the bottom, but still had some quality sea bass and scup with a few keeper cod as well. Wednesday took some work but we left Block Island with full coolers and limits of jumbo scup and sea bass! We had to put in some overtime to get it done but it was such a beautiful day- who wouldn’t want to be out on the water a little longer? Thursday and Friday were more of the same, with loads of porgies and seabass, and a good shot of cod coming over the rails as well. Saturday was a bit windy, which slowed down the catching a bit. We still ended up with good results, but not what we had the past few days.
As usual, this time of year is all about the weather. We’re looking forward to better weather and more good fishing as the fall progresses. We’re looking forward to our first “blackfish/bottom fishing” combo trips next week. We’ll be adding some more of these trips on Monday night- these fill up fast, so be sure to grab your tickets as soon as you see them online.
As always, be sure to check our Facebook page for daily reports and updates.
Our trips continue to be by reservation only at this time. As always, 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!
