Captain Bob reports Porgy and Seabass fishing has picked up. Catches a very good with nice size Porgies and some keeper Seabass. Fluke fishing in the ocean has been decent however we did not get out the last couple of weeks due to the weather. Looking forward to next week! Our Striped Bass trips have been OK with fish up to 37 inches. Some days have been slower, and on those days we mix it up with a little bottom fishing. Blues are just trickling in so they should hopefully be here before the next full moon! Make sure to get your reservations in while the fishing is hot!
