We drifted all over the deeper lumps today and had good life with the fluke,,,Again you had to fish through the shorts to get some keepers. . . Our high hook today actually had a limit of keeper flukes,,some others had two or three,,some one and some only got into some shorts,,no real reason for some having keepers,,just some were lucky today. .
It was actually really good fluking,,,most people today had between 15 25 fluke,,,the key was getting the right size ones to bite. . . Frankie did end up with 3 keepers,,,Chucky had two,,couple others had two,,some had one keeper but everyone caught fish today just some got into the keepers and some not. . .
Any we had only a small gang show up so we consolidated fluke boats today and sent my neighbor out with the all the fluke customers in Belmar and I got to have a nice day off with the kids at the beach The ocean is really beautiful today inshore,,just came back from the beach and I gotta tell you that the next two days looking really unbelievably nice with light west winds both days. . SO THE NEXT TWO DAYS ARE LOOKING BEAUTIFUL LAST TWO DAYS OF FLUKE FISHING UNTIL NEXT SUMMER WE ARE GOING TO BE TAKING A ROAD TRIP BOTH DAYS IN SEARCH OF SOME NICE FLUKES SO PACK UP SOME GOOD FOOD AND DRINKS CAUSE BOTH DAYS ARE PROBALY GONNA BE LONGER DAYS THAN USUAL SEE YA IN THE MORNING FOR COFFEE11
We had a nice shot of rain then the southerly winds picked up and it got a little lumpy. . . . Some shorts mixed and there,nothing great but a few fish. . .
We tried quite a few different areas today looking for some build up of nice fluke and unfortunately did not find it. . WE some good drifting conditions early on and caught a few keepers quick but that did not last long. .
9 19 13 We had a tough day today despite some really nice conditions. . . So pack a nice lunch cause we are gonna make a day of it See ya for coffee in the morning Only a few nice day like this left for the flukes,,,,remember it is a long winter
Great drift to start,,we covered some ground and had some fluke biting as soon as we started,,all shorts fishing close then we moved out deeper and slowly we picked away at the fish. . . . Each drift for a very small crowd we had fluke come up,,maybe 10 15 short flukes,,and in between we had a keeper or two show up in the mix. . . .
We slowly picked at some fish today,,,some in the hard bottom and some in the sand,,,no great one area but we managed some fish. I do believe Skip took the pool at the end of the day on our last drift. . . . Check our some pics from today,,tomorrow is looking pretty gusty out of the Norheast,,so I would probably wait to come down until Wednesday. . .
Every drift but one when the tide was changing we had keeper fluke come to the net. Best drift we had 8 keepers come up,but the others we had anywhere from 4-6.
