Connecticut Saltwater Fishing Reports

Albies are here and in pretty thick for so early in the season. I'm already getting filled up so get your bookings set if you want to get in on the action this year. Hope to see you soon.

I’ve been too busy to write reports so let me be brief. In the last 20 days of fishing I’ve had just one stinker of a day. Most trips have been epic with lots of big Bluefish and Stripers. My clients have yet to catch a small Bluefish & all the Bluefish have been in… Continue reading Really Good or Great!

Fished Tom and his 11 year old son, Diesel, today. Caught maybe 30 giant bluefish including one at 22 lbs. The big brute got measure up and they are getting it mounted. We didn't have a moment that one of them wasn’t on a fish. All the bluefish today were in the plus 13 lb… Continue reading Another Epic Day

Fished 2 groups today. Both groups were regulars. Morning team of two fished the flood tide and caught 25-30 stripers. All were bigger than schoolies but under the slot. Afternoon trip on the flood tide I had a single guy who caught over a dozen giant bluefish. All his fish were monsters but one was… Continue reading Wow! Hard to beat this!

Just too busy and haven’t been keeping up with my reports but fishing for stripers and bluefish has been epic since early June. Most days finding fish before I get to my favorite haunts. Lots of slot size stripers if you can get past the gator bluefish.

Fished with Santhosh, his son and sons friend yesterday. They made the run down from Boston for some fall fishing. Started the morning out with Albies busting everywhere near Black Point and Hatchetts reef. Those fish kept going until slack tide around noon. From there we headed to the reefs and caught maybe 15 Giant… Continue reading JAWS !!!!

Fished with Brandon and Brian both locals and experienced fisherman. We fished spinning and fly rod and the guys caught loads of Big Bluefish mostly on the ebb tide. Found gator size bluefish under birds and were able to stay with them for maybe 2-3 hours. While chasing the birds and Bluefish we came across… Continue reading Big Bluefish and a Few False Albacore

Fished my annual trip with local Scott and his NYC son Tom. Had a wonderful time but the wind made for some really rough seas and lots of slow going. Didn’t slow down the fishing though as we blasted some monster Bluefish. We looked for Albies as well to no avail. This year the Albies… Continue reading More Big Bluefish.

Fished with Mark today, he's an excellent fisherman and regular on my boat. We had a really fast start to the day blasting maybe 10 HUGE Bluefish. That bite lasted a couple hours at the end of the ebb. For a couple of hours we couldn’t miss. From there with high hopes and a tide… Continue reading Fast Start / Ugh / Great Finish

Fished with regular client and pal Tyler yesterday. Tyler is an excellent fisherman and really knows his way around a rod and reel. Weather was sunny but crazy windy. Water temp was 70 degrees. We had planned on going to Montauk but couldn’t get there with the wind. That ended up be a good thing… Continue reading False Albacore Heaven
