Title: Roosters Flukin 8-12
Post by: Peterooster on August 12, 2007, 07:03:29 PM
Tom and I went to the ocean looking for a keeper Fluke this morning. Left the slip at Atlantic Highlands Marina 6:45 AM and headed out to Marker#7 in the Sandy Hook Channel. We caught the last of the incoming tide and sat till the tide started out, 4 oz. of lead held bottom quite well until 10:00 AM. There were many large Sea Robins landed, which is Tom's favorite strip bait, and he has been know to bring some home for dinner. None for me thank you. Only short Fluke were caught as we drifted out as far as buoy #5. Killies and strips working very well. Tried the bay for some keepers but none were found, a big skunk for Tom and me. There were very few crabs on the pilings back at the harbor and someone helped themselves to most of our Killies in our floating bucket at the slip. PETE (°_)°)

I was down last night at the harbor and someone also wiped me clean out of killies I had in the saver.  I had a quart full, now gone and I wasn't happy. 

All the crabs on the piling were gone because the docks were crowded last night for some reason, everyone was makeing there rounds.

With the price of killies you have to put an armed guard on your killie buckets nowaday(http://www.smileycons.com/img/emotions/153.gif)s.
