Title: Point Pleasant Fluke 8/28/08
Post by: Bucktail on August 28, 2008, 02:55:44 PM
Finally got a chance to get out and do some fishing today!  TT^  Didn't have the whole day to go out, so I decided to jump on the Gambler's 1/2 day trip this morning.  Unfortunately I can sum up the fishing with one word...

SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! (http://www.sportfishermen.com/board/images/smilies/addsmilies/smilie_bett.gif)

There were about 50 fares today.  There were maybe a dozen fluke landed on the boat and only four of them were keepers.  I bounced my bucktails all day and wound up with 2 fluke (one keeper), one skate, and one snagged in the belly bergall.  The pool fish was around 4 lbs.

Stopped in to see my buddy Chuck at Gates B&T at the inlet.  He said its been that way all week.  He got out Tuesday with the guys on the Norma K and they had about the same luck as we did today.

In any case, it was good to finally be out there jigging up a couple, at least. ;D

Can't wait for the striper jigging to start! (http://www.sportfishermen.com/board/images/smilies/newsmilies/2119.gif)

Hey Ron,

I wouldn't worry about it too much.  October 18th is a looooong way away.  I bet you'll do great!  Good luck! t^

I'd love to get out there myself one day.

Take care,
Bob
