Default Done with FLuke!!

Well, I have been fluke fishing about 3 times a week since July, and after my 1st drift today, I decided I was done. ::)
Decided to change the pase and target sea bass for the next month until the water cools and the stripers make there grand fanaly. ;D ;D ;D ;D or October 1st (opening of Black fishing!!)
Wasn't sure how we would do, so aftere the 1st 4 or 5 keepers we threw back, we decided we can get enough for the Restraunt and started filling the cooler.
kept fish to about 5 pounds

Heres my 5lbr (actually only 4.something, b ut that our secreat ;D)

Thanks guys! Defently one of my favorite fish to catch! ;DThough I think I say that about every species when I change directions ::)

Sean......what do you change when target them instead of fluke? Clams? Different rigs? I caught one while fluking this weekend.....almost as big as the big boy you got earlier this season.....just under 6 lbs. We had stuck the tentacle end of a squid on the hook. Nice job......

I was going to start a new topic but I'll just piggyback.....

My buddy baited the rig and was fishing it but it was my rod.....he left it in a rod holder and I was next to it when I saw a hit. I picked it up and set it and offered to give it to him to reel in.....he told me to go ahead.....as a result we are claiming equal credit for the fish. You can find his picture on another forum with this fish. ;D

On the fluke side we brought home 9 keepers after a slow start....

Sean, I will definately make it a point to head out your way in October. I just got off the phone with my fishing buddy(told him about your offer) and he is looking forward to it also. We are heading out to Block Island tomorrow (Tuesday @ sunrise) because he wants to target some bonita and albies, so this should be an adventure. I have yet to make it out to Block Island and this will be my first trip.

Nice sea bass Kevin, way to go!
