Connecticut Saltwater Fishing Reports

So fished a really good fly fisherman from CT today. We really had to work to find fish but sooner or later we did. Were able to land two monster bluefish on the fly rod. This fellow is really good with the fly rod and if we could have found fish he would have caught… Continue reading 2 Half Days. Both very different !

The hurricane past us on Tuesday but seemed to only make the fishing better. Besides loosing my storage locker not much damage at the marina.  Luckily the boat made it through without a scratch!  Back to fishing though.  Fished with Alexi from Hartford and Hector from Rochester.  There is no end to Bluefish and Stripers… Continue reading Storm! What Storm?

Fished with regular customer Tyler and his brother AJ on Saturday.  Love fishing with these two as you really can’t find 2 nicer guys.  Weather was hot onshore but really beautiful once off the coast. Water temps were pretty warm from 69-73 degrees.  It’s really hard to explain just how FANTASTIC the fishing was.  As… Continue reading It Just Gets Better and Better!!!!

So fished with Rob, his 14 year old son and 13 year old nephew yesterday.  Rob’s family had travel plans and I had a cancelation so we had to finagle between tides.  Fishing has been hot and cold the last two weeks so I was really hoping to find some fish for Rob’s family.  Turns… Continue reading Really Good Fishing

So I fished Sean and his son Cohen From Windsor Locks, CT yesterday.  Both very experienced fishermen that I’ve fished many times before. We were booked a couple weeks earlier and had to cancel for mechanical problems.  Anyway we rescheduled for yesterday and WOW!   Yesterday had to be the single best day in my… Continue reading Best Fishing in 30 years

Hi everyone and happy new fishing year.  Covid slowed my start this year. As the governor had chartering closed down until mid June, I didn’t start fishing until the third week of June.  Having said that, the fishing has been good.  Plenty of Stripers this year, more bluefish than last year and the season seems… Continue reading Covid Slowed My Start

So we fished just a week in North Carolina this year. In that week we were only able to fish two days. Cold weather and loads of wind kept us off the water.  But the two days we fished were really epic.  Caught lots of big Albies and a really big Redfish.  My pal Charlie… Continue reading North Carolina Madness

So here we are at the beginning of November. Boat is coming out of the water Sunday and off to North Carolina on Thursday to chase Albies.   What a year it’s been in Long Island Sound.  So many great clients and so many memorable trips.  The year brought the biggest light tackle Stripers ever… Continue reading What a Year!

Fished with CT locals Tyler (a regular) and his brother AJ today.  Both are good fishermen and as energetic as they come.  We planned on fishing 8 hours but cut it short to 7.  Found Albies but really struggled to get them to eat.  Probably had 50 good shots and were only able to get… Continue reading Jumbo False Albacore

Fished with John from Lebanon CT and Florida.  Fished more than a full day from 9:30 until dark. Had to be a record in terms of number of fish caught. Countless Stripers (50-100), maybe a dozen Bluefish, another half dozen herring and big False Albacore.   All fish were caught on spinning gear with 6’,… Continue reading Record Breaker!!!!
