This is firstmost a fishing blog and secondly I provide a charter service for a limited number of clients. I write about happenings around the Sound: from fishing reports, to conservation, and all things aquatic.

I’ve been in and on these waters my whole life.  I started swimming as a kid, then fishing, kayaking, sailing, working on a tour boat/ferry, and rowing too.  I caught my first striped bass & bluefish in the Norwalk river at age 10 and never looked back.  I’ve been plying these waters under power on my own vessel for 11 years now, and a USCG licensed captain for 5.  I like to share the magic of this area via my pictures and musings on this blog.

This is not the author, but inspiration in the form of gentleman named Pete Kriewald with a 45 pound fly-caught striper from the Norwalk Islands in the 1970s.  Taken from Lou Tabory’s book “Inshore Fly Fishing: A Pioneering Guide to Fly Fishing Along Cold Water.”
