Sea Wife IV

Captain Tom from the Sea Wife IV reported another productive week of bottom fishing, with blackfish continuing to be the main attraction. On Wednesday, Tom, Bert, Phil, Brian, Matt, Steve, Phil, and Paul enjoyed an excellent trip on the east side of Fishers Island, putting together a full limit of blackfish. Thursday brought Don, Gayle, and Gary Thompson aboard for a trip that produced 11 keeper blackfish, a few sea bass, and plenty of short tog that were released. Conditions were challenging with wind against the tide, and the crew dealt with an unusually high number of snags throughout the trip. Despite the difficult fishing, Gayle stole the show by outfishing everyone aboard, including Captain Tom! On Sunday, Anthony and Lisa joined the boat for a half-day morning trip and managed two striped bass and 10 keeper blackfish, along with numerous shorts that were released. Captain Tom still has some open dates available for the remainder of the fall season. Give him a call at (631) 680-1025 to book a trip.

Captain Tom from the Sea Wife IV reported another excellent stretch of fishing, with blackfish, sea bass, porgies, and striped bass all contributing to some productive trips. On Sunday, Steve, Gage, Blaze, Sammy, Brian, Jake, Chris, Josh, Tom, and Oliver headed to Block Island, where they put together a limit of sea bass along with a healthy catch of scup. The following Monday, the same group of anglers from Rochester worked the Fishers Island grounds and landed a pile of keeper blackfish along with plenty of shorts, despite challenging wind-against-tide conditions. On Friday, the Rochester crew returned to the blackfish grounds after waiting for the wind to settle and enjoyed another outstanding day. Sammy took top honors with an impressive 10-pound tog, along with another fish weighing 7 pounds. On Saturday, John Leefoon, Mohamed "Ali," and their crew landed two keeper striped bass, a sea bass limit, and a good number of scup. Sunday's trip with Kevin "Fitz," Sean, Shane, John, Rich, Mike, Dennis, and George produced a striped bass limit, along with plenty of sea bass and porgies. Captain Tom still has prime fall dates available for anglers looking to get in on the action. Give him a call at (631) 680-1025 to book a trip.
