Chartered Capt John Cole again today on the Golden Touch and as usual he and Mate Rich did an outstanding job. Broke MI to a "stiff" 2 knot NW and headed South east (nice for a change) to some secret and some not so secret spots. Crew of myself, brother Joe, Richie Tropics and Glenn Fin reaper on board.
With no breeze it was HOT out there but in no time fish were coming over the rail. Richie Tropics had the "Golden Touch" today bailing fluke up to 8 lbs and putting 9 in the box, Glenn added 6 and was also on fire. Joe and I switched to seabass early and accounted for most but still boxed almost (1 shy) Fluke limits. Mate Rich and Cappy added to the box as well as we ALL had a great day.
Total for the day was 26 nice keeper Flukes and 21 equally nice seabass plus some bluefish and Capt counted 84 short fluke released.
Bucktails were the ticket for the fluke and casting out sure helped as we even nailed a bunch while at anchor.
Great catching, better crew and as always fantastic service on the GT,
