Fishing Reports

The SHAMROCK has been busy and so far during the Month of June of 2025 we have been catching Fluke, Porgy’s, occasional Weakfish and Seabass. Our Private Charter Trips will also be sailing for Fluke and at night for Striped Bass/Bluefish. The Night Striped Bass and Bluefish Trips have had great success-Bass up to 35lbs. and Blues up 14lbs. The Fluke trips have been catching more short Fluke than keepers. We have caught Keepers ups to 22″ on each Fluke Trip.

We use premium baits- fresh caught Bunker for the Striped Bass and Bluefish. Naturally harvested fresh Clams and Sandworms for the Porgy/Seabass/Weakfish, Canadian Spearing and thick white Squid strips for the Fluke.

Notice – when we sail as open to the Public  Advanced reservations necessary. We won’t pack you on the boat like Sardines or herd you around like Cattle.

Early June – The night bite has been hot with the Big Bluefish and even a few Giant Striped Bass.

Early June- The Big Bluefish came on strong for us after dark. Was a slow start but once that sun starting to set we started catching and as the night went on fishing got good with fish ranging in size from 6-12lbs. All fish were caught using fresh bunker.

Memorial Day Weekend our Guests enjoyed Great Fishing with Large Porgy’s and Seabass.

Memorial Day Weekend- Striped Bass and Bluefish Very Good on our Night Trips. The Bass and Blues have shown up in good numbers in our area and we are catching them at night using fresh bunker. Striped Bass in the slot size 28″-35″ and some as large as 40″ caught but released. We are Fishing for the Striped Bass with Circle Hooks and Fluorocarbon leaders.  The Blues sometimes come in and take over and tear it up, Then we go to wire leaders. Fish up to 14lbs being caught. Our night trips usually run from 6pm-11pm/12am by private charter.

May 19 – We started off the season with a very good run of Porgy’s. Plenty of hungry fish around to tug on the lines, put smiles on everyone’s face and fill the buckets. Fish ranging in size from throwbacks up to 2lbs. Some Seabass also caught but thrown back because season not open yet.

All of our Fishing equipment has been serviced. New line added, also some brand new rods and reels to replace older models. All to add to your experience and make it most enjoyable.
