Mighty Heron Charters

Capt. Mike and the crew of Mighty Heron Charters took advantage of the last full week of the April tog season with a couple of trips to the offshore wrecks, fishing in 70 or so feet of water. Here they were treated to a good pick of over 60 fish on one trip and over 100 fish on their second trip. All fish were caught on green crabs, and they were able to harvest about 3 dozen fish (plus a bonus cod) between the two trips. With tog season just about over, Capt. Mike will soon be gearing up for sea bass season, and their much anticipated “Go Big or Go Home” deepwater jumbo sea bass open boat trips. In the meantime, river striper and perch trips will fill the void until flounder season opens and then there will be both private and open boat trips in the back bays for flounder.

After a couple of disappointing blowout weeks, Capt. Mike with Mighty Heron Charters finally got out to the wreck sites for some tog action. While trophy tog were the target, the mega whitechins did not cooperate. Instead, the crew wound up with a very respectable total of over 80 fish, 17 of them keepers. Capt. Mike is already planning for the start of the spring black sea bass Season, which will include some deep water trips for jumbo sea bass.
