Raritan Bay 7/6
« on: July 07, 2008, 12:55:44 PM »
I fished the west reach  and princess bay yesterday and got about 12 short fluke and 1 26" fluke (dads personal best. We only caught using peanuts and squid combo once we ran out of peanuts we didnt catch any more fish. They would touch the speaing or gulp bait. We just drifted throughout the channels.

the antenna is internal so maybe it has something to do with that. And the peanuts were alive i saw a school when we were heading out of the inlet and threw the net on about 15 of them. They are by far the best bait for fluke i have ever used

Nice report and high-5 to dad for his personal best. That's a nice fish.

As CaptBob said, check your connections on the GPS. Make sure they are tight and clean.
