Best fluke trip so far......
 
Ten keepers all on gulp high low rig that I've been using.

Flat calm ocean, northern NJ had no more than 5 knots while friend off Cape May had rough seas and wind.

So flat I let er' rip for a quick top end with 1/4 tank, top down, trimmed just right and hit 50.8 mph.

That's fast.

10 keepers is a good day

guess I should start fluking again before it shuts down

May take day off to go Tuesday with my son.

Doesn't seem like work........but trailering down, launch, running, fishing, retreive, ride home, clean fish and boat......and 3 hours later I'm asleep !

Did another trip Tuesday with my son....... very good fluking, keepers to 5.2lbs / 24" fat.

Light west wind, flat seas, 35 mph the approx. 12 miles up to Shrewsbury Rocks spot.

Yup,and it's taken me a while to establish a way to catch more fluke ........

We have guys up in N. NJ that are very good at it, some private, some for hire.

I finally set up a rig and method that is doing better. Not great, better.

Caught 15 - 20 this last time out, with a few keepers to the 5.2lb, lost several of course including one that seemed huge etc........

" Cadence of the jigging action " made a difference too.

Anyway, still no real doormats of 8lbs - 15lbs . Maybe some day. Who knows, if I get a 10lb plus, I might even let it go........
