The Fall Run
Striped Bass, Bluefish, False Albacore, and Bonito migrate throughout the fall displaying an aggressive “all you can eat” baitfish buffet feeding style. Shoving, barging, heave and repeat as the main course flees for their lives. Fat and satiated to a point of gagging each predator is preparing for a very long and dangerous journey South.

The water off Newport’s visibility for sight casting is excellent. Clean and fresh- with new baitfish and their crazed predators arriving on each tide. A large variety of salt water species enhance our world class angling experiences- all season long.

“Out on the open sound in rough conditions, the boat’s seakeeping ability and handling were impressive, responsive to the throttle and helm commands. The 22-degree dead rise hull worked its magic in the building chop, and it rode the big swells with ease. That and the deep freeboard provide a feeling of security.” – by Gary Caputi
