Capt Kenny and supermate Jimmy had Larry, Fred, Brian, Ryan, and Adam on board today for this summer's first FTYP marathons.
Ran north, started out in tight, and within the first 45 minutes or so the guys boxed up 5 nice fluke to 4.5#. After that things SHUT OFF.
Bounced around, fished inshore, offshore, only picked a few shorts and a seabass and ling. Lots of current off the beach made for tough fishing, so it was back inshore. In on the beach, they finally found a nice patch of fluke and proceeded to "carpet bomb" LOL the patch for awhile piecing together a nice catch with loads of shorts in the mix.
A few more stops down the beach on the way home yielded a few more shorts, no more keepers.
By day's end the boys boxed up 20 keeper fluke to 4.5# (also had a few others right around 4#), a couple of nice seabass and 1 ling along with loads of short fluke. Real nice day with a great crew of regulars, and the guys had nice sacks of meat to take home.
Fluke fishing is picking up and is pretty darn good right now- we will be at it all summer long, everyday so check the website for the FTYP schedule under the open boat banner.
