Capt Joe reports a consistent squid pick last night. A lot of bigger sized tubes coming up with a good showing of mackerel making their way into the buckets. The tough weather made it difficult for some anglers to stick it out at the rail but those who did were rewarded with sea krakens. We […]

Capt Steven Jr reports that the Fall Harvest continues on the Viking Fivestar!!! We have had excellent fishing on both our Block Island trips and our 30-50 mile Wreck trips. Plenty of Seabass for everyone and the quality Blackfish are starting to chew! We have limited opening on trips in December so book now and […]

As the sun sets on another striper season here in RI I want to wish all my loyal readers and their  families a Happy Thanksgiving. We live in a beautiful state with some great fishing!

Capt Dave reports a good day of fishing on the Viking Starship. It was a mixed bag of Porgies & Sea Bass with all pretty much good size stuff. We also had about 8 Cod up to 12 lbs. The pool winner was Tommy Liu from Staten Island NY with a 2 1/2 lb Porgy. […]

Blackfish Pool – Mike Jung – Point Lookout NY – 8 lbs Sea Bass Pool – James Harris – Hillside NJ – 5 lbs Unfortunately the Viking Star is cancelled Friday Saturday and Sunday due to maintenance required.

Capt JR reports a good day of fishing on the mighty Viking Star. The weather was a little crappy but we found plenty of big Sea Bass waiting for us at Coxes Ledge. Everyone had no problem getting their limit of knot heads and we also had a few very healthy Cod in the mix. […]

Capt Carl reports a Solid Night on the Squid grounds yet again! We picked away all night with some flurries of good action and GIANT KRAKEN SIZE MONTAUK SQUID! There were also some lulls in the action but then it would pick right back up. We also saw about a dozen whiting! Looking ahead Friday […]

Last week I hit some great fishing but the last two outings have been poor.  Things change fast at this time of year and what was around a week ago is often not around a few days later.  The last two days have produced exactly one schoolie and one hickory shad in a number of places fished.  There are also other signs that the fishing is nearing t...

Capt Joe reports a slow but steady pick on the Starlite. It was definitely better for some than others last night with a few big ones in the mix. We are still seeing life  out there so we will be giving it another shot Monday night with the nice weather forecasted. There are still Montauk […]

Albie Snax rigged with BKK Titan Rider hook  I busted out of my November doldrums today in a big way.  I had good numbers of stripers along with my biggest fish of the last month.  I just knew this northeaster would produce because this type of weather was so good in the past at this time of year.  My big surprise of this rainy day was a 40+ inch...

Capt Dave reports good fishing on the Viking Starship. There was a good shot of Porgies and Sea Bass first thing then the slack water gave us a slow pick of mostly Porgies. The flood tide picked up and everything started biting well again. We also had  about a dozen Cod. Today we had good […]

Capt JR reports a good day of fishing onboard the Viking Star. We started out on the Sea Bass grounds and had EXCELLENT fishing. It was definitely lock and load with everyone getting their fill of nice knot head Sea Bass. The Blackfish bite was a little sluggish today but we boated some real beauties […]

Capt Carl reports EXCELLENT SQUID FISHING again on the Viking Starlite! It was one of the best nights of the year with many full buckets of GIANT KRAKEN SIZED MONTAUK Squid! They bit ferociously all night long! We will be adding another trip this coming Friday night leaving at 6:30PM and returning at 1AM. We […]

Capt JR reports another fine day of catching out at Coxes Ledge onboard the Viking Star. The Sea Bass fishing continues to be red hot with everyone having their limit of jumbo knot head bass. We did have a few more Cod today with some nice green ones in the mix. We also had a […]

Capt Dave reports great fishing today on the Viking Starship. We started off on a wreck and had big beautiful Sea Bass and nice size Porgies. There was real quality there. When it slowed down we moved around looking for a good spot. There were plenty of bites with smaller fish. We finally ended up […]

The fishing along the RI oceanfront continues to be poor. Those abundant schoolies along with the bait we had earlier in the month have moved on. Now it's a matter of waiting to see if another bunch of fish moves through. Yesterday was the first time in a long long time that I got totally skunked.  Not a fish not a hit and saw nothing! I fished a...

Captain Dave report another great day of Porgy fishing on the Viking Starship today. We saw a lot of action today between Porgies and SeaBass with some beautiful size to each. We had pretty equal showings of Porgies and SeaBass at each drop neither really biting more than the other. We also had a bunch […]

The SQUID ARE STILL HERE! *** NEW TRIP ADDED*** Captain Carl was very happy to report that the Giant Montauk Squid are still here! We’ve had quite a few days of stiff winds keeping us away from the Squid Grounds but we did sail Saturday night and it was still windy but we did see […]

Capt Dave reports a very good day of fishing today on the Viking Starship. It was good consistent fishing from start to finish today with fish at every drop. We did make about 3-4 drops today. We definitely saw an influx of Seabass today with more anglers pulling up keeper SeaBass than Porgies. We had […]

Captain JR reports a stellar day of Coxes Ledge fishing onboard the Viking Star. We had excellent sea bass fishing with everyone easily getting their fill of jumbo knot head sea bass. We also had a few cod in the mix along with some base ball bat ling green bonito and a sprinkling of hub […]

Here's a slot fish coming ashore with my Albie Snax in its mouth. The striper fishing has taken a dramatic turn for the better for me in June. The sandeel arrival has brought big numbers of stripers to the oceanfront.  The whole month has been productive but the climax was a couple of days ago when I hit one of the biggest blitzes I have ever se...
