Connecticut Saltwater Fishing Reports

Fished with Jennifer and Zach from CT by way of Buffalo and North Carolina. Both were experienced fisher-people. We were originally after False Albacore but we didn't find the speedsters in any of the spot they normally hang out. Decided to fish for giant Bluefish and probably got a dozen to the boat. As luck… Continue reading Lots of Bluefish !!!!

Fished with a very experienced fisherman (and regular client), Billy, and his long time pal Max. Max hadn’t done much fishing but we fixed that in just a few short hours. Went to my favorite spot for HUGE Bluefish and were immediately rewarded with the big gators. Max hooked up almost immediately and Billy wasn’t… Continue reading BIG BLUEFISH 🎣 and an Albie!!!

So I took Monday off to take the love of my life (my wife Cynthia) fishing. The last time I took her fishing was 33 years ago. Had a late start and finally arrived at the dock around noon. Weather was sunny and hot but a little windy. I loaded the gear on the boat… Continue reading Wifey Wanted to Fish

Fished with Jessica and her posse today…all CT locals. Started out at Valiant and caught a few Black Seabass and a nice bluefish but fishing was pretty slow. About the time we were getting bored a pal of mine texted me that the fish were going off at Plum Gut. Weather was okay but windy… Continue reading Slow Start – Fast Finish

Fished Hernando, his two brothers and his 80 year old father today. To be honest Fishing wasn’t very good. Maybe the worst day I’ve had this year. Never the less they didn’t travel from Columbia, Wisconsin and DC for a boat ride. So we really fished hard to get 2 giant bluefish (hooked 5 or… Continue reading Columbian Connection.

So this is as early as I remember our speedy False Albacore pals showing up. But yesterday Fat Albert’s were at Watch Hill, The various beaches east of Watch Hill and a couple of my spots here in CT. Would really like all of my regulars to have a chance at them this year and… Continue reading ALBIES ARE HERE

Fished Guy, Christine, Cameron & Alex yesterday afternoon. Guy and Cameron are experienced fishermen but not so much for Christine and Alex. As it turned out experience wasn’t an absolute requirement as we caught Giant Bluefish until the whole gang (including me) was completely worn out. Interesting that these fish were on top under birds… Continue reading Giant Bluefish and a Thresher.

Fished with Christine, Rob and their three wonderful kids this morning. Fished right off Harkness first thing and found Stripers and Bluefish but they turned out to me fussy eaters. Caught a couple but didn’t get a bunch. From there on it turned out to be game on with giant Bluefish near Little Gull Island.… Continue reading Kid Records on Bluefish.

Fished with Heather, Joe and their two young boys yesterday. Weather was gorgeous and fishing was really good. We fished the ebb tide. Joe was an experienced fisherman and Heather liked to watch more than fish. Both the boys LOVED reeling them in once they were on the hook. Anyway, only had a 1/2 day… Continue reading Family Fishing Fun

Storm Henri is long gone now. The boat is back in the water and I fished two different groups yesterday. Both trips and both tides produced awesome fishing. Stripers and Bluefish including some giant bluefish everywhere. A little unusual to have both tides produce awesome fishing but that was the case today. Soft plastics seemed… Continue reading Gets Even Better After Henri
