Connecticut Island Outfitters is based in Westport, CT. Its coastline offers many acres of skinny flats, reefs, and rips that make the area a premier destination for the most passionate light tackle anglers. With Captain Roger Gendron, you may be able to enjoy sight-casting in as little as a foot of water or take ferocious strikes off the surface.

Join Capt. Roger on his 22’ Ranger bay boat, powered by a 250 HP Yamaha 4 stroke engine. She can comfortably accommodate up to 3 people and carries a full complement of navigational electronics, including a GPS/plotter, fishfinder, and a VHF radio, as well as a remote-controlled 80 lb thrust trolling motor for a stealthy fish hunting.

During a trip of your choosing, you will be fishing the saltwater along the shoreline and islands of the Western Connecticut coast. A day out with the team will see you targeting Striped Bass, Bluefish, Little Tunny, Scup, and more.
