Squid, squid, squid!!!! 🔥🦑 A very successful first squid trip tonight! Got to the grounds, got the lights (both underwater and on the rails) all set up and started picking away shortly after. Once the squid settled into the lights it was game on, with squid flying over the rails all night. Couple flurries of drop and reel fishing, but mostly a steady pick with some guys really dialing it in. Had to keep working the water column, but they were around the boat all night long! Many guys with 40-60 a piece, some with more. They bit right until we blew 3 horns to head home. Readings were very good, and when we were on our way home we read large bodies of them all over the area. It's time!! Check out our story for some video of the action! Not sure how long these will stay around, but we are adding a trip for Monday night! 7PM-1AM! Come and get em while they're here! Reservations only, limited to 30 passengers!

Seabass limit today!🔥🔥🔥 Headed out with a light crowd this morning right to where we left them yesterday and boy were they there. Keepers were flying right from the start with drop and reel double header short life. Hovered the piece of bottom, keeping the guys on the best life. The muggers got real bad, even trying to push us off the drop with their anchors🤣🤡 so took a little ride looking at other pieces, picking a couple quality fish off each. Once the muggers scattered, we went right back and finished off our 12 man limit and were able to get home a little early. Bait worked best today, seeing the best quality. Listen to the crew, when they tell you somethings working better than other things, make the switch!! Every day is different! We'll be back at it on the Seabass grounds in the am! We have plenty of room at the rail, come on down! 7:30AM-2:30PM Still have room on tonight's 7PM-1AM Squid Jigging Special! Come on down and pay cash on board. Back to night stripers on Thursday, 6:30PM-11:30PM 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ Book you spots at fishdarkhorse.com or call/text 973-440-0335 for more information

Back out tonight and back on the Jumbos🐍 No hot and heavy bite tonight, but we picked away. Had good conditions for the first half of the night and had bites on most drifts. Chased the tide as far as we could until it died off on us, along with the bites. Saw our first showing of dogs tonight too which isn't the best sign, but when we drifted correctly we had plenty of bass bites. Back at it on Thursday night! We are NOT striper fishing Wednesday night, we have our SQUID JIGGING SPECIAL from 7PM-1AM (still have some room available) 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ To book your spot visit fishdarkhorse.com or call/text 973-440-0335

Very good Seabass fishing today!!! Got to the grounds this morning and had instant life. Short action was pretty much drop and reel with some very nice keepers coming up on the bait. Hovered around a couple of pieces, picking the keepers off each. Made a little move and man did the fish start flying. Double headers as fast as you could pull them with some very nice quality. Some of the best quality of the year. Ended up dropping the anchor and we had steady action for the rest of the day with many guys catching their limit+++. Both jigs and rigs worked well on the last drop, with bait seeing slightly better size. Tons of limits, many just 1 or 2 fish short. Everyone went home with plenty of fillets for dinner! Such an awesome sign to see after a couple lousy trips over the weekend. Can't wait to get back out there tomorrow! We still have a couple of spots open tomorrow night for our special Squid Jigging trip! 7PM-1AM! Reservations only so don't wait.... See everyone tonight for Stripers, and in the AM for Seabass! 7:30AM-2:30PM Seabass 6:30PM-11:30PM Stripers Book your spots at fishdarkhorse.com or call/text 973-440-0335 for more information

Had the Rutherford Rotary Club out today for their annual trip. Beautiful day on the water, but the fishing was slower than it's been. Had a couple good shots of keepers in the morning mixed in with very fast short life. Bounced around a lot of bottom looking for better but saw mostly the same everywhere. Pick of keepers with good short action. Would've loved to see more keepers but the action kept everyone busy. Also saw a couple of cod and blackfish that were all released. We are going to take a pass on tomorrow mornings trip. Forecast is calling for 30mph+ out of the North. Definitely not ideal for where we're fishing. We'll be back at it on Sunday! Still have room right now, but I definitely suggest to book your spot in advance! Don't want to be left at the dock. 7:30AM-2:30PM Seabass 6:30PM-11:30PM Stripers 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ For more information please call/text 973-440-0335, or book you spot now at fishdarkhorse.com

Another good day of Seabass fishing today! Got to where we had our best bite yesterday and was greeted with a ton of boat traffic and a sluggish bite. Picked at the keepers with OK short life. Knew it wasn't going to happen so took a ride looking for better. Hit a million little spots picking a couple off each, until we landed on one with the right sized ones. Got a good shot at keepers with drop and reel short life. Lasted about an hour until it slowed up and we went looking again. Landed on another good pile to end the day, with drop and reel double headers with some beautiful keepers coming up. Left them snapping before the wind came up and headed home. If we had that fishing all day it would've been something..... Bunch of limits, and lots with 6-8 a piece. Not as good as yesterday, but still plenty of fish to be caught! ***WE ARE NOT AVAILABLE TOMORROW MORNING, FRIDAY 5/29*** Sorry for the inconvenience, but we have a private charter. We have room on both Saturday and Sundays trips though! Come on down and fill the coolers. Took a pass on tonight's 6:30PM trip with the wind, but back at it tomorrow night. Sailing every night weather permitting! 7:30AM Seabass 6:30PM Stripers 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ For more information please call/text 973-440-0335 or visit our website at fishdarkhorse.com to book your spot now

Another great night of Trophy Striped Bass fishing! Took a few drifts to get some current, but once we had it we had non stop bites every drift! Steady fishing with 1-3 fish per drift with a couple drifts of 4-5. That lasted a couple hours, then decided to take a ride and look at some different bottom. Again had fish right away with 6 on our first drift, then settled into the same 1-3 fish a drift for the rest of the night. Definitely non stop action with a ton of bites tonight! Thanks to everyone for fishing hard and working together as these fish ran circles around the boat. Love this time of year, some of my favorite fishing!!! Back at it again tomorrow for both trips! 7:30AM-2:30PM Seabass 6:30PM-11:30PM Trophy Stripers ***NOT AVAILABLE FRIDAY AM*** 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ For more information please call/text 973-440-0335 or visit our website fishdarkhorse.com to book your spots now

Full crush on the jigs today!! Steamed out this morning to where we left them biting yesterday. Took a few drops of picking a handful of keepers through millions of shorts, but once we landed on them it was game on. Double headers were flying on both bait and jigs, but the majority of keepers came up on the jigs! The guys who were dialed in had their limit before 10am. It was as fast as you could pull them for the majority of the day, the jigs weren't even hitting the bottom. Drifting conditions were perfect, so we were able to cherry pick the keepers off each drop and not waste any time with the anchor. HH had over 20k(orl) himself on the jigs. Bare A17 and a sandeel teaser was all you needed, but they ate pretty much any jig/teaser you threw at them. Bite lasted until the change of tide, but by then it was time to start heading home. Ended the day just a couple fish shy of our 17 man limit. Super fun fishing when they bite like that on the jigs! Also saw our first keeper fluke of the season, as well as some blues. Lots of life out there! Back at it tomorrow! Bring a spinning rod with some jigs! But as always we're loaded up on clam bellies for those who like to bait fish! 7:30AM-2:30PM Still have plenty of room on tonight's 6:30PM Striper trip as well. ***WE ARE NOT AVAILABLE FRIDAY AM 5/29*** Open boat every other day besides this Friday.... 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ For more information please call/text 973-440-0335 or visit us at fishdarkhorse.com to book your spots.

Trophy Time!!🏆🐍🏆 Great fishing on tonight's trophy bass eeling trip! Picked a few everywhere we went for the first half of the night. Lots of bouncing around seeing bites in all areas. Ended up landing on a real nice pile of fish loaded up across some structure and it was game on for the rest of the night! Fish on every drift, with many drifts seeing 2-5 fish. Many guys with 2-3 fish a piece tonight. Between the fishing and the weather you couldn't beat it! The pictures are a little rough tonight, the guys were crazy busy netting fish and tying rigs all night, and I had a long night of power drifting... But here's some! Check out our story for some videos of the action. Back at it again tomorrow night! This is some stretch of weather/fishing we're seeing.... Don't miss out!!

10/10 day on the Seabass grounds today! Can't ask for much more than what today brought us. Fantastic weather, and the fish bit all day! Bounced around a ton of different snags all morning, picking a couple keepers through drop and reel shorts off each drop. The fishing seemed the same everywhere we looked, very fast action with lots of recycling. Landed on a piece towards the end of the day and it was game on with the keepers. Tons of double header keepers flying over the rail on both clam bellies and jigs. Lots of limits+ today, with everyone going home with plenty of fillets for dinner! Finally the bite we've been waiting for, along with some perfect weather. Even myself and Michael were able to drop down and catch ourselves dinner! Great day on the water, excited to do it again tomorrow. Forecast looks even warmer for tomorrow, come on down and get in on this bite! Plenty of room on board. Plenty of room on tonight's 6:30PM Striper trip as well! 7:30AM-2:30PM Seabass 6:30PM-11:30PM Stripers 2 Simon Lake Dr Atlantic Highlands NJ For more information please call/text 973-440-0335 or visit us at fishdarkhorse.com to book your spot now
