This week saw steady action with fluke, bluefish, , hickory shad, and "
August schoolie stripers" !!! to just 27", and keeper blackfish to 3lbs but
found the weakfish disappointing . Joe Kinlin of the Green Briar fishing club
was out with son Tom for some back bay weakfishing but found the trout to have a
case of lock jaw, so it was off to see " What else can we catch " . The guys
ended the trip with a steady pick on fiesty blues and stripers on BKD's on light
spinning tackle zzzzzzzzzzzzzz ! Bill Artigilier was out with daughter Jessica
to experience some light tackle action with blues , fluke and ended the night catching hickory shad
[ aka Jersey Tarpon ! ] that were swarming and free jumping in our grass shrimp
slick . Regulars Jay Simmons and Joe Franke teamed up in hopes of some grass
shrimping weakfish action but found again the trout not responding to our grass
shrimp. It was time once again t o see " What else can we catch " and found pile
s of just undersized fluke to get the rods bending ! After the tide went slack
in the back we moved around a bit to locate a " Slam Fest " with over a dozen
schoolie stripers and keeper blackfish to 3lbs !! The guys ended the day
throwing back more " UNDERSIZED ? " [17-17 7/8 ]fluke . Everyone keep your
fingers crossed that the powers that be come to their senses and relies that our
fluke stock is in phenomenal condition !! ......Serenity Now !!!
