Long Island Sound - Saltwater Fishing Report
TAKE YOUR PICK!
Albies, blues, bass, blackfish, and bluefin tuna. Every October the fishing scene usually breaks wide open. Fish are gorging for the winter and it is not difficult to score on any of the above fish. Especially for the light tackle enthusiast. Fish can be found crashing bait from Watch Hill to Plum Gut. Many of the stripers we get on our live bait trips tip the scales at 40+ pounds. Last year we scored two fish over 50 pounds in October. Blackfishing has been the best I have seen in years. It is not hard to limit out, and they are on just about every rocky reef in the sound. Bluefin tuna are being caught in big numbers as well with fish being caught upwards of 150 pounds with an occasssional spooling by a giant. Get out while you can, we still have a few dates left for the fall run. If your interested in a trip give us a call at 860-573-3614.
Kingfisher Charters will provide fishing excitement that is customized for you and your group. We will personally discuss with you the type of trip that best suits your needs and desires. From the beginner to the advanced we offer fishing adventures other boats can't match.. A typical full day trip can take you light tackle casting, to live bait fishing, then to deep water trolling for striped bass, bluefish, and fluke. We specialize in live bait fishing for trophy sized bass in shallow water.
