7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Went out this morning at 515 am got to the fish grounds, but the drift was fast and the fish picky, ended up with some nice fish 4+ pounds, After taking a few for the table we sold 98 pounds today.
Fog was thick! 100 yards at most, most of the morning. I had to make this a short trip as I had a training for work this afternoon. So we got out of there around 10:30 |

I remember when we used to have them funny lookin fish here in my part of FLORIDA, been awhile though. Long liners and netters have done some MAJOR damage in the past few years.

Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Thanks all!!
I have been doing this a long time, It is my favorite fish to fish for and eat. I was concerned that I was not going to get on them this year as I have not been out there for 2 years with all the crap theat went on. Thank god I had a GPS and saved all my numbers! Cause I have been on them like I never left! Quote:
I use a made by me St.Croix 7' rod Lure wt 3/4 to 3 oz, line wt 10 - 20 Model F70MBK I have a Penn Mag10 or Penn 146 Squidder, loaded up with 65# Spider Wire Stealth. On the end of that I have a fish finder, with as much weight I need to be on the bottom, 4 to 8 oz Swivel to a 30" long 25 or 30 pound Seagaurd Floro leader with either a 3/0 wide Gap (37160S) or 6/0 Gamakatsu Octopus hook. I start out with caught by me Squid, I just bring 3 squid a trip as I start using Fluke belly after I start catching, Some say use the belly, I use both sides and it wiorks great!! Ok now is a slow tide I use about 6" or better stirp to catch the fish, But if ther tide is running I will use 4" on the hook. Slow tide you need long to make it look good for them lazy slobs! Fast tide you need short to omake them run up on the hook cause you moving by them fast, if left long they will just be biting the tail of the bait and never getting to the hook. There you go, you now no how anmd what I use to get Fluke. I will get a pic tomorrow |
Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Not a full cooler but still sounds like you guys had a blast! Good job! ;D
|
Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
We always have fun! But 1/2 a cooler makes me mad!!
I know there was a whole cooler there and I am a better captin then that!! I am going Tuer again and I will get the full one!! I have a new spot I going to try for the first time, I hope it is going to pan out! Cause it takes like 6 miles off my trip if it does! |
Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Jealous in NC :'( Pretty work once again! 8)

Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Macojoe, I congratulate you again!
I admire your catches and imagine all the action you have in order to fill up a cooler, however I don't like to see you guys (commercials) keep 14" fluke up to 200lbs per day when I can't keep a 18" fluke here in CT and 19" in NY...but I learned how to deal with it! :-X On the other hand, I'm also glad that the people managing the fish stocks are not ER doctors in my neck of the woods ::) |
Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip

Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
Bass I understand what you are saying!!
The recreation guys here get 7 fish at 17 1/2 and I think that is a crime!! They put a lot of cash in the area for rods reels gas bait taxes ect.. exct.. and get dumped on! I understand the commercial side of it also, cause of the dragers they will get lots of smaller fish that will go to waste if had to be bigger. Its a battle all the time some agree some don't. I agree with both and stay with in the law! Thanks twisted!! |
Re: 7/11/07 Another Fluke trip
