Title: Fish Monger Fluke Sun 8/2
Post by: Capt -Jerry P on August 02, 2009, 06:56:17 PM

Had an open boat trip today with Russ, Pocono Pete, Paul, John, Ralph and The angler formerly known as Njbob

Weather started out nice... but that would change after morning...

Headed to the fluken grounds... First couple drifts were Slow with a keeper and a couple of shorts...

Found a patch of fish and we Boxed a keeper a pass along with shorts and some good Bites for 4 drifts...

Drift started to get very fast and slider with wind agaisnt the current...

Went off to another patch we got a couple of bites and both were big fish Paul boxed a beaut@ 9lbs 12oz & Ralph with one 5lbs 3oz...

Tried to get a few more but now the drift just became too fast and we lost our Bites... Frustrating!!!

Headed inshore in 30ft rough bottom... We picked 4 more keepers one of which was 7lbs ona bunch of drifts along a few short Fluke n seabass... With the fast drift the rocky bottom was Brutal at times...

Storms on the radar and warning of wind/ lighting prmpted us to call the day a little early after it was apparent we werent going to be able to doge them...

Rode Home in 10 miles straight of POURING BUCKETS OF RAIN...

So for the Day We wound up with 11 keeper Fluke and 3 seabass... A few real nice size ones. Congrats to Paul On landing 5 keepers including two nice ones at 9lbs and 7lbs...Ralph with a 5lber... Russ Landed a nice keeper and Hung in there with no sleep and Being under the weather...Pocono Pete put 3 in da cooler and Bob kept us entertained as always(Short Jokes) and thanks for da crumbcake rofla

Back at Tomorrow

Great Guys,Thanks Again Fellas!!!
