Back in the water; no trips yet - We launched My Bonnie several days ago, but we haven't wet a line. Reports are grim right now; it's just too cold. But as the temps rise, we should be seeing some porgies and stripers close to home.

Coming down to the last couple of weeks.... - Charters have been way down since Labor Day weekend, but when we've gone out we've been rewarded with lots of bluefish in the middle of L.I.Sound. And blackfish season is open, and there's no shortage of tautogs around the Norwalk Islands.

Post-Labor Day Slowdown Has Begun.... - We were busy with daily trips including some double headers through Labor Day, but the demand for charters has slowed down very quickly as families got back to business at summer's end.

Busy schedule in late August.... - We fished last Wednesday with Dr. David Yan of Fairfield, his parents, and his 10-year-old son, Zack. The doc knew how to handle a rod and reel, but the others were all beginners. They did manage, however, to bring in porgies up to 14, bluefish up more...
