Capt Dave reports a pretty solid day on the Viking Starship. The full moon tide was running hard making the conditions tougher than we have been seeing.

Here are just a couple of Frank's books. He was a prolific big striper hunter writer and lecturer. He had a profound affect on surf  fishing for striped bass that carries on to this day. It is with sadness that I report the passing of Frank Daignault a legend and pioneer of saltwater surf fishing.   Frank was someone who many consider the “Godfa...

Captain JR reports a WINDY day on the Viking Star! Conditions were definitely a bit challenging but we started with a decent catch of Sea Bass and a few jumbo Scup in the deeper water. The inshore Blackfish grounds were good to some with a couple guys getting a limit but conditions again made it […]

This was Charlestown Breachway late in the day this afternoon.  Not a  soul there not a soul along the beach. That says it all. Suddenly the striper fishing along the oceanfront has gone downhill.  The last couple of days have not been good for me or good for anyone I know. So this all begs the questions: Are we just in a a late season lull or is...

Report to follow.

It's the first one from the oceanfront for me this year. Expect good numbers of them in the coming week. I landed my first striper of the year from the oceanfront today a fish I would call a scout.  In striper fishing lingo a scout is one of the early arrivals that makes it's way ahead of the main body of fish.  I suspect this was a scout becaus...
