Great news!

  The Connecticut Black Sea Bass season will now be opening on SUNDAY MAY 1st!  There will be a 15” minimum size and 8 fish bag limit for charter boats. This raises the quota 20% from last year! – This is an unbelievable opportunity to get out on the water soon and capitalize on one of the best eating fish in the sea!  –  We have never had a biomass of black sea bass this large before, nor have we had the sea bass season open this early. – Combine this with the warm water temps and the fact that the Sound is already teeming with life and we’ve got the makings for an unbelievable spring run!  –  We are officially starting our season on May 17th, but if you want to get out there early to target sea bass exclusively, just give us a call!

* New this year

We are official members of the striped bass tagging program!  

Every year we release hundreds of striped bass back into the water alive and well. These fish are of various sizes that either didn’t meet the 28” minimum length requirement, we already hit our legal possession limit, or our customers were just practicing catch and release.  Now, instead of just letting them go; they will be weighed, measured, and tagged!  The next person who catches that fish; days, weeks, months or years later will also weigh and measure the fish. This is an invaluable tool that gives scientists and regulators information on the rate that these fish grow, their migration routes and spawning patterns to help keep the species healthy and sustainable.
