Fluking getting hot? Hit 1/2 day Brielle yesterday. Windy am had to anchor. It sucked. Not even a short for me although there were a few fish caught. Almost went home but stayed for pm. Glad I did. Wind calmed and we could drift. Guy next to me had 3 big fluke including 6 lb pool winner before I caught a short, but I stuck to it and had 3 no measure keepers until the wind slowed and it was skate time. Lots of fish around the boat. This goes with 5 keepers last Thursday and 6 this Tuesday ( took both trips ). I am convinced that most fish have been staying in the rivers and bays with the cold water and just coming out now. With no heavy northeaster the next 2 weeks should be good.

You're right. The fluke stayed in the river where we've been caching them all season long. This happened in 2013, and again in 2015. Nothing BIG but a 5.4 pound fluke is good for the river. Hopefully, they will be there for one more season ending trip.
