Atlantic Highlands fluke fishing August 12 12 August 2017 Capt. Tom The weatherman kept most of the people away but we made both morning and afternoon trips again today. On the afternoon trip the short action was better then the morning but not as many keepers.

The Jamaica from Brielle had great action today with bonito from 3 to 6 pounds plus blues from 2 to 5 pounds -- and added some Spanish mackerel. The Big Mohawk from Belmar had OK fluking as there were many 3-to-5-pounders and limit catches.

Constant action all day, sea bass, porgies and lone blow fish. Pat Puff O Neil was the happy pool winner today with his sea bass.

Got a few skippies and albies right away and then had a double of the right bites. Continued to pound away at the area all day with a pick of yellowfins to around 60# with plenty of skippies and allies keeping the rods bent.

OUR AFTERNOON TRIPS SAIL DAILY FOR FLUKE AND SEA BASS FROM 4 30 P. M. 8 30 P. M. JOIN US AS WE BOTTOM FISH AND MAMMAL WATCH AND THEN CATCH THE MOST STUNNING SUNSET THAT WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY. With Miss Belmar s 3 engines and a total of 2,100 horsepower, she is the first boat to the fishing grounds every day and we guarantee it.
