    Are you hanging it up for the season or still fishing?

    Congrats on what appeared to be a very good season for you John. Enjoy the Holidays, rest up, stay healthy, and come back strong next spring. Looking forward to seeing you out there again come May!

    Are you hanging it up for the season or still fishing?

    Brutally windy fall and only 1 charter run for November so far. Looks like I will get in Saturday. Long range forecast actually looks good for middle of next week so if it is even close to the prediction I will run as many consecutive days as the weather allows. I too typically go until the...

    Short Weather Window

    Nice going, John. I'm jealous as I was supposed to run a charter today and last night my customer tells me he thought he was fishing with me next Saturday and was on his way to Vegas!? So, not wanting to burn a lot of fuel and sailing solo I headed back into the bay and sorted through about 50...

    Current and Blackfish

    I believe Kona makes an excellent point; Current speed is not only dependent upon the stage of the tide cycle but the actual location you are fishing. Some inshore, well protected drops will have a fairly slow current flow even at the maximum velocity of the current as related to the portion of...

    Fish Thieves

    That's making the most of the ridiculously short weather windows we are getting this fall. Well done, John.

    Captain's Table - Tog Bite Rolls On

    Five more windy days and finally a chance to fish again today with my long-term regulars John and Ricky, joined by newcomers George and Spiro. The moderate NW breeze meant another trip across the Sound to my reliable CT drops. With only about 90 minutes of the end of the flood to work on the...

    Captain's Table - Tog Marathon

    It wouldn't be a good Tog trip if we didn't break off at least one really good one. That's one of the "joys" of Tog fishing that keeps us all coming back again and again!

    Captain's Table - Tog Marathon

    In between this falls nasty windstorms I finally enjoyed a 4 day stretch when we could hit the Tog grounds consistently. My four excellent crews all did their best to put very respectable catches in the boat each day. Starting last Friday, Matt and his 3 friends Anthony, Nick, and Mike joined...

    Rigs for Blackfishing

    Wow! For a piece of history like that the price must be very steep! I bet I could put 100 rod holders on that beauty!

    Peconic Start Fleet Closes

    I did not see this article but received confirmation from another North Fork Captain that this is indeed the case. While the larger and newer of the Peconic Stars vessels was sold to Frances Fleet in RI, it appears that Capt. Speedy is not out of business just yet. That's a good thing for the...

    Rigs for Blackfishing

    In your case, I might need 2 skiffs!!:eek:

    Rigs for Blackfishing

    Some great advice listed above about going as light as is practical when it comes to using jigs. The trade off when going this light is you will feel more bites and eventually hook more fish, but the real challenge is how to stop them on the super light stuff. Regardless of your approach it is...

    Rigs for Blackfishing

    My new plan is to buy a skiff to tow behind the boat outfitted with another 50 rod holders. Do you think that will be enough capacity???:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
