Codfishing slowed up off Block Island the past few days. The full moon tends to effect the bite and It appears the moon is having an effect on the fishing now. Fishing should improve after this on the down side next week. Make your reservations now so you don't miss out.

Over the past month good catches have been made but reports have been inconsistent as well. Sometimes bait is better and other times jigs work best depending on what the cod are feeding on. Be prepared for both and change your strategy as conditions warrant.

Listen to the captain and watch the mates and anglers who are catching. Be prepared to adapt and you will succeed.

Good luck, Leif
