All I can say is there are plenty of Fluke around. we are having no problem with the catching and plenty of nice size fish but most don't make the 18 inch minimum size. Its really a shame to throw back those 17 inch beauties back. We did have a couple bigger fish today a 4.2lber and a 5.3 lber. We will be back out there tomorrow. See you soon, Capt. Rob
