Well the boat is all wrapped up and winterized.  It was a great season, and we were blessed with good weather and many great trips and fish.  We'll be getting our reels serviced and equipment ready and hope to see you on the water soon.  Cod and Haddock will be coming over the rails soon!  Give us a call or shoot me an email to make reservations.

Tight Lines!

The striped bass & bluefish are in!  The fish Gods have been with us and we have caught fish on every trip!
Cod and Haddock are more easily found offshore but occasionally we get them nearer to the coast before the dogs move in.
Tuna have been spotty, but are being landed fairly regularly.  Tuna should pick up within the next few weeks for the fall run. Be aware that the NMFS has modified the rules on BFT a couple weeks ago and recreational anglers are no longer allowed a trophy 73"CFL and greater fish, anything over 59" is prohibited now, but not for s commercial category fisherman, we are still allowed to keep them at the time of this entry.
Sharking has been fantastic with many caught every trip, all released safely thus far.  Two Poorbeagle sharks within a week of each other.

Trips are booking up fast, with a few left.  Give us a call!

I just received my IGFA Captains Certification, so I am up to date on the requirements for properly submitting for a world record.  They also have a great smart phone app that gives you the current world records for all species of fish, among many other things.

The Stripers are in strong.  Mackerel are still here also, we've been jigging them up
along the South Shore.  Stripers love them - so do the Tuna which we have been chasing around.

Seems to average out to about 4 fish a day caught around here according to my buyer which, although that may sound slow, that includes all days, and the weather has not been very cooperative lately.  But the forecast is for a great week coming up and we will be out there.

Bill and I have decided to revisit our policy on sharing the proceeds of a saleable fish with the customer and we have come up with the following:

If a saleable fish is caught to be brought to market, the charter party will have a choice or either:

Get the charter for free,
or,
30% of the sale of the fish.

This decision needs to be made before we reach a dock to offload, or you will get the charter for free.  We don't know what it will bring until the buyers get a hold of it for their sampling.

It's a gamble, but so is fishing!

Flounder, striper, cod and haddock are stacked up.  Tuna season is open.  Many charter dates are still open.  Sign up soon to reserve your spot!
