We had a rather wet 4th of July to deal with but we had a great turn out of anglers. The morning half day was on the slower side with some anglers getting dialed in but it was off from what we like to see. Once the rain ended the fishing picked up and was much better in the afternoon.
Wednesday morning was great fishing. We had a pop of fluke for around and hour and nets were going all around the boat. The bite died out but the sea bass fishing picked up. Good number of shorts to keep rods bent. Sailing all trips tomorrow at 7am 8am and 1pm.
Pretty decent pick the last 2 days on the full day grounds. Gulp and working up tide has been the key. Biggest fish has been just over 8 pounds. Sailing tomorrow morning and keeping an eye on Monday with the weather.
Oh what a winter it has been. It’s been a very warm winter but that means lots of wind. It looks like it may die out tomorrow but then puff again on the weekend. We plan on sailing tomorrow at 6am. Reservations are booked online at Francesfleet.com

Been taking a few days off from the blackfish but the big ones didnt want to leave us alone. We been fishing the Sialnd for sea bass and cod and found DD tog both days. Mondays big one was close to 12 pounds and Tuesdays was 16lbs on the scale. We had boat limits of sea bass and some cod mixed in on the local rocks and wrecks. We will be sea bassing until December 31 and more cod seem to be showing up every day as well. Water tempatures are still in the 50s.
Sailing Blackfish tomorrow morning at 6am.
The Lady Frances will be sailing tomorrow morning at 6am for black. Captain Cole reported a good pick all day and ended just shy of a limit. The morning we were plagues with small tog and sea bass. We made a longer move and the last 2 drops produced well. Biggest fish on the day was over 10lb that was released. Some other fish in the 5-7lb range. Jigs and rigs worked well. If you have any questions about jigging the office is open and stocked up with jigs and jigging set ups.
Captain Rich reported a good day on the sea bass grounds. An easy limit of sea bass to 6 pounds with alot of catch and release. Jigs and bait worked very well. Some nice cod up 35″(released). Sailing everyday at 7am by reservation.
The weather looks great for tomorrow and we will be sailing both boats tomorrow at 6am and 7am. Reservations are booked online at francesfleet.com
Captain Rich reported a slammer day on the sea bass grounds. We took the ride to the ledge and founds piles of black gold waiting for us. Anglers were catching double headers left and right. One angler reported dropping down bare hooks with no bait and catching sea bass 2 at a time. Full boat limit of bombers. Some cod in the mix but we just think the sea bass got to the baits first
