Any boats sailing 3pm to 9pm for mackerel and whiting?

Miss those old school Magic Hour trips! Whiting, Ling, Mackeral and was with my Dad when he caught a big Monkfish.

I am sure the captains would love to be able to do it.. Just not enough fish around anymore... bob

I remember those whiting. The fish my dad used to kill by the millions!

^^^^^^And That, ladies and gentlemen sums up why there are no more magic hour trips....

I'm a regular on party and charters (~10 years), never saw a whiting.

For the last 3 summers I've been on the paramount almost every weekend.....this summer I saw 1 caught, and most people had a "holy sh*t" look to them.

It might have been in the spring but still most people were in disbelief, they even got the captain to absolutely make sure it was a whiting.
