Fluking 7/16

[macojoe]

Well I have been hitting it pretty hard and I am beat to crap!! The weather has been a 100 on a scale of 1 to 10!!

We got 190 yesterday and 140 today, and there have been some nice fish out there!!

It was a bit lumpy here this morning but Kenny was able to hack it pretty good!



And here is the catch

Speechless

Did you guys see any of the swell from the tropical storm? We had some pretty big swells hitting the reefs the past few days.

Damn thats were all the keepers went! Outa 20 fish caught here, you might get 1 keeper

[deshet]

Are you saying that you caught 330 flounder in two days?

Man I have never caught that many in my entire life. VA has so many rules I think we are limited two per day limit. I really don't fish for flounder too often but getting two is hard enough. I believe ours must be 17 3/4 inches to keep.

Do you normally catch that many?

Thanks,

MJ, if I didn't see the pics I would not believe it. I am baffled as to how you can find so many fish. You see party boats loaded with people go out and not catch that many. I think my best day ever I caught 20-25 fish....total, not just keepers. Forget the fact that you are commercial and can keep smaller fish. I have just never seen anyone catch that many fluke regardless of size. Are you sitting on the fluke motherload up there? WOW

MJ, you gotta be talking 140 and 190 lbs. and not # of fish. Right?

I think you are correct but I still find the numbers staggering.....

Nice job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[macojoe]

Thanks all!!

Yes I am commercial, Yes I mean Pounds, and this is all the time, some days there are 75# some days 200# and any were in between.

That was 330 pounds in two days, I am limited to 200 a day, but I never fish past noon, so I don't always make it.

I blew reverse yesterday?? But it will be fixed tomorrow or Sat, BS & CB have offered to help, I have a spare lower unit to swap for now and have the other repaired l;ater. I will be back on the water Tue for sure.

I bet you are glad to have that spare motor laying around about now....you might have to fish past noon a couple days to help pay for those repairs to your LU.

Way to whack em and stack em MJ! Oh and awesome pics!
