Steady flukin 7/30







Met MAtt and Craig at the boat this morning to replace a cracked transducer.


Pulled the boat out and twenty minutes later it was good as new, so we headed out to do some local fluking. Had steady fluking throughout the tide, bringing 13 keepers to the boat along with Matt dropping three while getting ready to swing them in. Also had 10 nice knuckleheads.

Biggest fluke was over 7 pounds

Fluke shortcomings 7/9













Headed out to do some fluking with Craig and John after getting my T Top welded this morning. Heard the AM bite was very good and was hoping the outgoing would be good also this afternoon. But it def wasnt for us. We bounced around hitting a bunch of different spots both bucktailing and dragging baits in the ruff stuff, caught alot of fluke but 95% of them were an inch short.We all ended up catching some nice fish but def far from a good catch , still an enjoyable day with good friends

Fun trip 7/2



















Headed out this afternoon with John planning on doing some fluke fishing for a change of pace.

Saw a few good pods of bunker as we headed north and I threw the net for some strip baits.

Seeing the bunker moving fairly quickly inshore I knew there had to be something on them , and when we pitched a couple baits in they were hit pretty quick and we started to pull on some nice July stripers until a couple of boats saw us taking a picture and had to keep running the schools over shutting down what was a very good bite. Made our way north to the rocks talked to a friend who had been doing pretty good bucktailing, we started to catch a few shorts but the south wind started honking and we could see it was going to not be the easy relaxing afternoon we had wanted.fished a few hours with just 2 keepers making it into the cooler.
