Fishing Reports
A fun day as always with our friend Itchie & the gang, the bait is in our back yard & the bass are chewing! Easy limits & lots of releases today livelining bunker. Fishing is only going to get better & better over the next few weeks as bigger bass follow the bait into the bay to gorge themselves before moving on.
We have Saturday & Tuesday afternoons available for charter and still have a couple spots left on our 4/29 open boat. Book online at rockfishcharters.com or call 347-661-4501 🤘

With Spring break in full swing it was kids club on the Rockfish this week. Lots of families on board with us & lots of great memories made! There's a ton of slot to 36" fish around right now and everyone went home with a bag of fresh filets.
We have some availability the 1st week of May and fishings only going to keep getting better. Book online at rockfishcharters.com or call/txt 348-661-4501 🤘

2024 was another killer season on the Rockfish with too many laughs, crazy feeds & more epic catches than ever! Thanks to everyone who fished with us last year - the bass were huge and the bluefin were close, there were so many mahi and the yellowfin were nonexistent lol. But we took the Manhattan Cup with an epic 60lber- here’s looking at you @mnhtn2mtk 🤘Yet again the video really says it all (thnx @editfishcook for the bang up job). Me @bassappeal and @feezo23_ubmc can’t wait to do it all over starting April 15th!

11/20/24: Great day with Chris & friends today. Found out bait immediately then started catching bass after bass with everyone on the boat on at once! A new body of bigger fish moved in but there were still tons of slots around to mix it up. Pops got to tag a few bass and we even saw our 1st seal of the year, not to mention tons of whales 🤘

11/15/24: Another great open boat today with a few dozen fish to 30lbs. Had em on live bunker and shads getting fish at every drop all morning long. Even got a nice whale show at the end!
We have a couple charter dates left and 2 spots on next fridays open boat. Call 347-661-4501 or booking link in bio
11/8/24: Another great open boat trip today! We started out by making a pass through the bluefin grounds, saw them come up a few times but nothing solid enough to cast on so we pushed to where we left the bass chewing last night and started catching fish immediately on the bunker schools. Lots of multi hook ups all morning long. Stopped on some birds on the way home, tossed out our remaining 50 bunker, and had them blasting baits in the air immediately! Another dozen bass to 30lbs was a nice way to close out a fun day!
We have 2 spots left of our next (and maybe last) open boat of the season and charter availability the week of 11/18. Book online: www.rockfishcharters.as.me or call 347-661-4501 🤘
11/7/24: This morning we had Mark back out with his church group- they said a prayer on the ride out & it was answered with great fishing for the crew lol. Lots of bass on the bunker schools and we left em chewing.
For our afternoon we had Rockfish veteran John & fam out & it was lights out fishing. Bunker were getting blasted out of the water all around the boat and the kids had a blast reeling in big bass! Both trips even managed a couple of keepers.

11/5/24: Todays trip was catching not fishing lol. We had Curtis & fam back out with us again & the bite was instant. Literally hooking up on the 1st cast & staying on them the whole trip. I've never seen less boat shy bass, the school would follow a @nolivebaitneeded swim shad to the boat & one would grab it inches from the bow! We switched to trolling for an hour and got constant double headers, then back to throwing shads. Fun day with a great crew!
