Striped
Bass - Bluefish |
| Our Striped Bass trips
are considered our broadest range of trips. We offer light
tackle casting, fly fishing, wire line trolling, anchored
chunking, deep water jigging, and live bait fishing with hickory
shad and live eels. Size of fish range from small schooled bass
in the 5 to 10 pound class to big lunker bass in the 30 to 40
pound range with the occasional 45 and 50 pounder. We have
scored on these big linesiders anywhere from 10 feet of water to
90 feet of water and they are usually taken on live bait. There
is no greater thrill than to see a 40 pound bass enhale a live
hickory shad in 10 feet of water. Bluefish, well there evrywhere
and these vicious fighters roam where the stripers roam. With
the exception of shallow water when big stripers are around
because they may become lunch for one of these lunkers. |

Fluke |
| Fluke fishing aboard
the Kingfisher has been outstanding. We fish for these tasty
fish from the first week of May up until October. Every year in
May huge doormat fluke are taken off Montauk and our boat on a
calm day gets us there in about 35 minutes. We use our own
specially designed fluke rigs that have been fine tuned over the
years to consistantly score fluke when others are wondering what
they are doing wrong. If you enjoy eating fresh filet of sole it
doesn't get any better than this. |
| Striped
Bass, Fluke Combo |
| We offer full day
trips that combine any of our striper trips with our fluke
trips. You decide when you have had your fill of one and we'll
take you for the other. This is our most popular trip and it's
pretty obvious why. Our boat is equipped with the latest
equipment and electronics and with twin 250 Evinrude outboards
it will get you from one productive spot to another in minutes.

| Sea
Bass/Porgies |
| Sea Bass and Porgies
trips start in July and go through Oct. We can also combine
these with any of our other trips if you like. There are usually
so many of these fish around it's not uncommon to get a bite
before you can let your line out to the bottom. |
| Blackfish
|
| Blackfish fishing has
improved every year with fish not only being caught in the
winter months, they are being caught all summer as well. We will
do charters for these tasty fish or combine them with one of the
other species listed above. Last years big fish was a 10
pounder. |
| Kids -
Learn to Fish Trips |
| We also offer 3 hour
trips where you can bring your kids out to learn how to fish.
These trips are for up to four kids at a time and they are in
the calm protected waters of the Mystic River. There is no
better way to teach your child to fish. We go for hickory shad,
porgies, and fluke on light tackle within a stones throw from
shore. Children feel safe and they have a blast catching fish
after fish. Hickory shad and porgies run in huge shools and feed
aggressively, therefor there's no sitting around waiting hours
for a bite, the excitement and education they recieve is
unmatched. |
