Westport Outfitters

History

Since 1989, Connecticut Island Outfitters offers fly and light tackle fishing, primarily in shallow salt water along the shoreline and islands off the Western Connecticut coast. The many reefs and rips that form along this tidal area, offer prime fly casting to Striped Bass, Bluefish, and other species depending on the season, such as False Albacore, Fluke, Porgy, and Black Sea Bass. Acres of skinny flats offer anglers the opportunity to sight-cast to fish in as little as a foot of water, and draw ferocious strikes off the surface. We welcome all skill levels and we are kid friendly.
