Awesome day out there yesterday. Togs were biting their heads off before the blow. Lots of limit catches around the boat with the pool fish around 9 lbs.

As a result of the great fishing and warm water temps, we have extended our season and will be fishing through the weekend of December 10.

Below are a few pictures from this past week. Both of these blackfish weighed in over 11 lbs!

Awesome day.  One of the best trips of the season!

Insane Bail JOB today!  21 anglers enjoyed an awesome bite on quality blackfish all morning long.  We limited out, left them biting and were home by 12:30.  A day to remember for sure!
Big Ed Remek won the pool with a 9 lb beauty.

Wind and seas laid right down today. Nice pick of fish today with some very big tog in the mix. Pool winner was over 10 lbs and a very big blackfish close to 12 lbs that was not in the pool was caught and released to fight another day.

Below are some pictures from the trip.

Fishing was very, very good on Thursday with many limiting out on the day.  Friday and Saturday were slow and the bite was way off with the full moon.  Today was better though as the fish bite well in the afternoon after a slow morning.  Should be a great week coming up.  Prime time!

Blackfishing is very good right now!!  Plenty of room still on many trips.  Here are a few pictures from todays great catch:

Very good day today.  150 keepers were landed in short sleeves.  Beautiful weather out there.  Pool was 8 lbs.  High hook was 14 keepers (ORL).  Mrs Schiano lead the way landing her limit on her first ever blackfish trip.   Now is the time!

Saturday Oct 29,2006
Had a great time out there yesterday with the crew from Noreast.com .  100 or so keeper tog were landed with many fish in 5lb class.  Sergio let them all know how it is done and won the pool on his first ever blackfish trip with a 9 lb tog.   The weekend is a blowout.  Hopefully we can get out again in Monday.  Below are few pics from the trip:

Waiting for the big push still.  Most trips are seeing 25-80 keepers with plenty of quality blackfish in the mix and lots of porgies  but we still haven't seen  a real great shot of fish yet in the deeper water.  The fish seem to be in the shallows still but hopefully this blow for the next few days will get them fired up.  Good days are ahead!

Few good blasts of fish today. Bite is getting better and better.
Roger Tursi led they way with ten keepers. 80 keepers were landed total for 29 fares. Pool was 7lbs.
Beautiful day out there.
Below are a few pictures from the trip.

Some great weather recently to go along with a decent catch of blackfish today considering the moon tides and warm water.

12 fares had 25 keepers to 7lbs. We fished a few wrecks and rock piles in 20-40 ft of water. Fun day.



Sunday October 8, 2006
Beautiful day out there today. Nothing like blackfishing in short sleeves.

Blackfish are just starting and good days are ahead. Today saw 45 keepers to 8-9 lbs and some nice porgies and a few sea bass. Not a bail job by any means but some nice fish none the less to go along with the awesome weather.

Try again tomorrow!


Thursday Oct 5, 2006
Great bottom fishing now.  Blackfishing is just getting going as most trips are seeing around 15-20 keepers on the day to go along with all the jumbo scup you want and some big sea bass, bluefish and an occasional striped bass.  Great mixed bag action fishing mostly wrecks from 20 - 70 feet of water.  We have had some big tog to 9.5lbs the past few days.

The blackfish will continue to improve as the water cools.  A few more degrees and they should be biting good!  Weather looks awful for the next two day but Sunday and Monday look very nice if you would like to join us.  Plenty of room on both trips

Togs are chewin' !!!!

Opening day today was a great success. Despite the horrendous sea conditions wind and rain, the blackfishing was very good as 17 anglers had 55 keeper blackfish! Plenty of quality fish too with the pool around 8 lbs. Great start to the season.

We will be blackfishing everyday now at 7am. Only 10 people have signed up for tomorrows trip so far and very few have signed up for the rest of the week. Come on down if you would like to join us tomorrow or give a call if you need further info.
