Fluke party boat, Atlantic Highlands.. Worth it?

[go fish]

Was considering jumping on a party boat this coming Thursday out of the Highlands for some fluke fishing.. Is it even worth it? Looks like the fluking this year has been pretty bad. Also, which boat do you guys recommend? Not looking for a 1/2 day, would like to be out there till 2-3pm. Thanks.

It got better this weekend. Fisherman or Angler are the boats to be on from there.

Highlands boats have been fishing the ocean side so it cuts down on your fishing time but u fortunately that's where any decent catches have been made...your call

Those are half day boats. He said He doesn't want half day.

A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work! What's the worst that can happen? Some fresh air, make some new friends, maybe a bad day or you take the pool ? Have had both experiences. Don't know till you try!

To answer your question: no it's not worth it on any boat

Better to save your bucks and hit the river :)

Depends on your definition of "worth it" in my opinion if I want 60 bucks worth of fish I'll go and buy 60 bucks worth of fish. I would rather spend the time on the water and support a local business regardless of bringing something home for dinner. And you never know what might happen but it won't happen on the couch

Fluke fishing seems to be picking up from shrewsbury rocks into raritan bay, so trying a boat out of AH is fine. Last time I was out the full day boats were fishing south of the hook, but the belmar boats were fishing up there too, so if you live near middletown and drive to belmar, it didn't make sense. I live nearby so I always hit AH. I personally go on the prowler, it's the fastest boat from dock to grounds and from spot to spot, captains and crew have always been great. You won't go wrong with the angler or fishermen either, capt. george and captain ron are top notch.

cheers

Today it was worth it....Don't know about tomorrow. I'd be rich if I could guaranty you that.:)

Preparation plus opportunity plus a little luck is well worth it
