Confusing title isn't it, I launch my boat in Atlantic highlands and it was a beautiful day  ,water calm no sind  ,great  I get to my boat and there is a shine on he water, oil shine ,looks like it's from my engine but hey it's a two stroke  so I'm really not to concerned  to make a long and boring story short the oil is pouring out of my oil cap that had a crack  so my day was short  now I have to find a cap with the low oil alarm

Planning on joining you shortly.  Need to switch trailers on the boats and hook up the new electric down-riggers.  Want to try bounce balling for Fluke outside...  I figure I'll work my way down to the Shrewsbury rocks and back up again :head:

This time of the year especially when we've been so hot for a while, the water is way too warm, so here is my lousy 2 cents.  I think the water is way too warm, those Fluke are in deeper water of the channels, off the drop offs,  like Ambrose.    GOOD LUCK have FUN!!!!!!! BE SAFE

Yep your 2 cents are correct, I hear they are in deeper water on the ocean side  mud bouy,Scotland , cause they are getting sea bass in the mix, this guy had a 21 inch fluke and big sea bass  , nothing in the back but a sea turtle lol and maybe a bull shark  , we were drifting by the pound nets by the coast guard and something big hit my sons line are broke the line like it was a string , that was weird   Hey destroyer if you need a hand with your boat switching trailers ,let me know I can help you, retired lol

I really appreciate the offer for help.  Fortunately I have my son that lives with us and is willing to help, so it's not needed.  We're scheduled to do it this Sat, weather permitting.
