Fished yesterday with Rob and his pal John from Southern CT. We wanted Albies on the fly rod so off to Montauk we headed. Finally had a gorgeous day with light winds and warm weather. We got to Montauk right at the change to the ebb tide and to be honest it was looking pretty… Continue reading Montauk Madness

Fly Rod Exclusive
I’m behind in fishing reports so here’s from Saturday and Sunday this weekend. The storm that was offshore made a mess of things last week and we weren’t able to fish at all. So first time out after the storm was with a wonderful couple from North Carolina. Janet and George are exclusively fly rod… Continue reading Fly Rod Exclusive
Lots of False Albacore!!!!!!
Fished with CT locals Bill, his 15 year old son Luke along with his pal Alex today. We left the dock at 8 and decided to head to Montauk to chase Albies. I was a little concerned to take the boys ‘combat’ fishing since they didn’t have a lot of experience. As it turned out… Continue reading Lots of False Albacore!!!!!!

Lots of Running
Both trips this weekend were similar. Had to run 25 miles east to west to find fish at the exact right time on the tide. Both days we got lucky and found fish but we really had to work to find them. Albies arrived over a week ago now and were starting to get in… Continue reading Lots of Running

They’re Back!!!!!!!
Fished Tyler from Colchester CT today. He’s a good fisherman and he really pounded the bluefish today. He caught fish after fish virtually all day long. Guessing 50 plus fish. And he caught all those while we were really on the hunt for his first false Albacore. We only had 1.5 hours of daylight left… Continue reading They’re Back!!!!!!!

What a Day!
Fished a young couple, Katarina & Rob, today. They were visiting from Philadelphia and wanted to give CT saltwater a try while on their vacation. Luckily it was flat calm today because as it turned out Katarina was 4 1/2 months pregnant. Both she and Rob have some fishing experience and we were… Continue reading What a Day!
Not so Hot to WOW!
Fished spinning gear with Ken from CT today. We only had a half day so I was anxious to get Ken on fish quickly. We hunted for 45 minutes and struggled to find any fish. Finally found a pile of birds on a western rip. Picked our way through some nice bluefish. Headed to… Continue reading Not so Hot to WOW!
