BIG BLUEFISH

July 19, 2021July 19, 2021 captpeter9

Fished a full day with regular customer Kevin and his 2 pals from the Poconos. All 3 of these guys were experienced fishermen. Weather was great and fish were everywhere. Ebb tide or flood didn’t seem to matter as long as it was moving. We fished both fly rod and spinning on this day. Several… Continue reading BIG BLUEFISH

Gator Bluefish

July 12, 2021July 12, 2021 captpeter9

Fished a half day with a regular, Kyle, Sunday afternoon. We ran in to a school of giant Bluefish. Caught 4 of them with this one the biggest at 18lbs. Fishing the ebb tide hasn’t been nearly as good as the flood tide but these fish changes the game. Every one was bigger than the… Continue reading Gator Bluefish

3 Generations of Fishermen

July 11, 2021July 11, 2021 captpeter9

Fished with Scott, Dave and their sons/grandsons today. We found fish on birds at Plum Gut but had to maneuver through 50 boats there to catch them. Decided to find some fish on our own and luckily we were able to do just that. Found a pile of Stripers to 27” and medium size Bluefish… Continue reading 3 Generations of Fishermen

Lots of Birds but More Fish

July 11, 2021July 11, 2021 captpeter9

Fished a really nice local couple, Kelly & Mike, yesterday. Both experienced freshwater fishermen but neither had a ton of saltwater experience. We only had a half day and we fished under birds the entire 4 hours. We went to our first reef at the beginning of the flood tide and found birds on fish… Continue reading Lots of Birds but More Fish

Cooler was Full…Need a Bucket!!!

July 4, 2021July 4, 2021 captpeter9

Fished three really nice young guys from Providence, RI today. They are all cooks and wanted fish to eat so off we went. Trip was just a half day but we ended up with a cooler full of Scuo, Black Seabass and Bluefish. Had to give the guys a bucket to get the fish home… Continue reading Cooler was Full…Need a Bucket!!!

Fly Rod or Bust

July 2, 2021July 4, 2021 captpeter9

Fished with one of my best fly rod guys today….Todd. He can really handle a 9wt….one of the top 2 or three casters I fish. Todd’s a purist and only want to use the fly rod. At slack tide we fished the rocks behind Fishers Island and found several Stripers willing to eat the fly… Continue reading Fly Rod or Bust

Water Temp is Up and Fishing is HOT!

June 28, 2021June 28, 2021 captpeter9

I’ve been doing a lot of family fishing over the last week. Even though Porgies aren’t my thing it’s always good to take young kids to a secret Porgie spot to keep them from getting bored. Water temp in the Eastern Sound is up to 63 degrees so , more and more each day fish… Continue reading Water Temp is Up and Fishing is HOT!

Birds and Fish on Top…..Finally

June 20, 2021June 20, 2021 captpeter9

So I fished a double yesterday. The afternoon trip was remarkable in that on the flood tide I finally found birds on bait with fish on top. I was fishing with Dick from East Lyme CT. Dick is an experienced fisherman and our hope was to get in some Striper fishing so off we went… Continue reading Birds and Fish on Top…..Finally

Big Striper for Jen

June 8, 2021June 9, 2021 captpeter9

Fished with Chuck and his 12 year old daughter Jen yesterday. I’ve been having luck on the ebb tide but not so much on the flood tide. Jen changed our luck yesterday though. She caught a 30-35lb Striper and was able to get the big fish to the boat. Her nice fish was one of… Continue reading Big Striper for Jen

Best guide we've ever had! Captain Peter wanted you to catch fish just as much as you wanted to catch fish. He was quick to move when a spot wasn't working....

Peters the best captain around. Knows how to put you on the fish and knows the waters better than anyone I've met. Only capt I'll use.
