Sea Tiger II Porgy Report. Great fishing!!

I headed out Saturday with good friend Bill and son Leif on the Sea Tiger II 1/2 day afternoon Porgy trip. Haven't been out on an actual Porgy trip in about 20 years so I was looking forward to it since the fishing has been so good this year. Last trip was the Jamaica II in 1990.


Anyway it was a great afternoon out. Leif fished ultra light and used the rigs we tied the day before, 2 and 3 hook rigs on 20lb triplefish with Gamakatsu hooks.They sure did the trick. Bill had suggested that those little sharp hooks would be the key and he was right. Bill and I fished the same rigs on conventional outfits.

We wound up with 40 Porgies in the cooler and had a great time. There were a few other species caught including some Blackfish and keeper size Sea Bass that were released.

The Sea Tiger was a great boat and Bill informed me that it was the old Big Marie S. The crew was great and it was a pleasure fishing on that Party Boat.

As always, it was great getting out with my son and Bill and we look forward to some great Porgy dinners. (Recipes to follow)
