Sunday 8/3 ran open due to a cancellation, crew of 5. Very tough fishing for the guys, pretty rough seas for most of the morning, that didn't help us at all. Bounced around quite a bit with only a handful of keepers for the day.
Monday 8/4 ran open with a crew of 6. Found the bites all day, just couldn't get them to eat the hooks. Short biting all day. Tons of dropped fish on the day. Again tough fishing, or should I say catching. Finished the day with 10 keepers to 8lbs.
Wednesday 8/6 ran open with a crew of 5. 4 of them were novices at fluke. Made a few stops inshore but didn't see any life at all. Went deep and the bites were there. But short biting. Lots of dropped fish once again. Every drift we got a keeper atleast. That didn't last long tho. Went looking around some more and it was bad. At 2pm made a 12 mile run to nothing. Ughhhhh. The guys threw in the towel..... A load of shorts, 10 keepers and 6 Seabass for the day.
Something needs to change with these fluke here.
Sorry no pics for these amazing catches....
