Hoping to go fishing in Norwalk? Make it happen, with CT Angler Fishing!

With Captain Mat DiGiovanna (IGFA Certified Captain) at the helm, you’ll benefit from 30+ years of fishing knowledge and experience.

These waters are known for Striped Bass, Bluefish, Flounder, Scup (Porgy), Black Seabass, Bonito, Little Tunny (False Albacore), and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! During the trip you might be spinning, popping, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Mathew also offers fly fishing.

Capt. Mathew welcomes anglers of all ages, including kids, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Also remember to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Capt. Mathew operates a 23’ Regulator center console with room for 4 passengers. This hull is highly sought after for its incredibly smooth and dry ride. It is considered one of the best rides in its size of any center console.

It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included (depending on trip).

Just show up ready for some fishing! Have in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

*START TIMES ON TRIPS ARE ADJUSTED BY CAPTAIN DUE TO TIDES, WEATHER, and WHEN THE FISH ARE BITING! TRIP TIMES ARE TO BE MUTUALLY AGREED UPON. BE SURE TO DOUBLE CHECK WITH MAT.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with CT Angler Fishing!

STRIPED BASS: April - 1st week of July + October/November
BLUEFISH: May-November (Some years are better than others)

    great experience!

    FULL DAY TRIP on August 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    our trip couldn’t have been any better. captain matt is such a great guy. he wss incredibly patient and gracious to me and my son and he answered every one of my sons 10,000 questions. matt was upfront with me before we committed that the water has been really warm and that we might not catch a lot of fish, but he assured me that he would try his best. he put us on some good fish right away and we landed a keeper size strip in the first 20 minutes. I appreciated his willingness to try many spots and didn’t just troll with us. the highlight of the trip was hooking into a big striper that my son so desperately wanted to catch. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend captain matt to anyone. e

    A man with a plan and results for any situation

    Half Day Trip – Norwalk Islands on September 7, 2025 • 4 adults

    Extremely accommodating and knowledgeable captain. My group picked one of the coldest and wetter mornings a day you typically would want to reschedule and expect to catch no fish. Within thirty minutes the captain already had us hooked up and fish on boat had a heavy haul by the end of the trip.

    Had a perfect day catching fish with my young kids. Captain Mat was incredibly communicative before the trip and we caught exactly what he said we would. Caught over 20 fish in just a few hours. Excited to do another trip with Mat soon

    Captain Matt is great!

    Half Day Trip – Norwalk Islands on August 27, 2025 • 4 adults

    My 13-year-old son, his two friends and I had a fantastic fishing trip with Captain Matt. Matt knew just wear to go to find lots of fish and big ones too. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

    Fantastic Morning with Captain Mathew!

    Half Day Trip – Norwalk Islands on July 27, 2024 • 3 adults

    Set out looking for blackfish in the morning with some catches. When things got quiet, the Captain took us hunting for bluefish. Found a school of Bunker and the rest was incredible. We all caught blues and had a great day. Will definitely repeat!

    Had a great trip with Matt. Trip was cut short with lightening and Matt graciously scheduled another trip with bonus time to fish. Looking forward to the next trip
