Fin Chaser

Captain Keith from the Fin Chaser reported outstanding bottom fishing over the weekend. On Sunday, September 6th, anglers enjoyed an all-out porgy bite in Montauk, with plenty of doubleheaders and quality fish quickly adding up to a boat limit before the boat headed to Block Island, where anglers put together an excellent haul of jumbo sea bass. Saturday’s trip produced much of the same, with jumbo Montauk porgies filling coolers and limits coming quickly before the boat headed to Block Island. Captain Keith called it some of the best jumbo sea bass fishing of the season so far, with both quality and quantity. Carmine Ferruggia Jr. was among the standouts after boxing limits of both jumbo porgies and jumbo sea bass. On September 5th, the Fin Chaser crew once again started with excellent Montauk porgy fishing before heading to Block Island, where anglers put together another strong haul of jumbo sea bass. Charles Danazar took top honors with a standout catch of quality sea bass. To reserve a trip or find out more, visit MyFinChaser.com or call (516) 643-0940.

Captain Keith from the Fin Chaser reported another week of red-hot bottom fishing, with anglers making short work of limits of Montauk’s jumbo porgies. The summer scup bite continues to run at full throttle, while Block Island has been producing jumbo sea bass with quality fish hitting the deck daily. Large triggerfish and some fluke have also been mixing into the catches. Weekly pool winners included young Sebastian with a jumbo sea bass Monday, Valerie Beatty with a jumbo sea bass Tuesday, Jason “ROC” Smith with a jumbo sea bass Wednesday, Pastor Daris Dixon Clark with a jumbo sea bass and Jerry Hobson with a fluke Thursday, Chia-Feng Chen with a jumbo sea bass Saturday and Norman Lee with a jumbo sea bass Sunday.
