Reel Class Saturday 8/17 Fluke Limits +++ to 8 + Lbs!
 

Had the FSOS tourney today with the regular crew of Larry, Fred, Ryan and Brian along with Kenny and I.

Broke the inlet early and had lines in around 6 am. Got a great sunrise to start the day :) Fishing to start off was a pick, and we had some nice fish flying over the rails early.

At around 7 Fred decked a personal best, 8.55# fluke - congrats Fred!!! We continued to pick, slowly, and were putting a nice catch together. Once we stopped getting bites, we moved to another piece, and got a few more, and it was that way until around 10 AM.

At 10 we made a move to deeper water offshore, but that simply stunk as we had just a couple of shorts.

So, we moved back inshore to finish up the day. Got some more keepers, quite a few more shorts, and finally got a real good bite going at the very end of the day before we had to shoot in for weigh-ins where Kenny got a nice 6# fish + 4 more keepers to top off the box.

When we weighed in Fred's 8.55#er was 3rd, but since then I believe that has changed. Either way, great fish and congrats to Fred. Ryan, Brian and Fred all had limits +, Kenny caught his limit, while Larry and I also put some nice fish in the box. We wound up easily boxing a boat limit of fluke + (probably had ~36 keepers for the day) keeping only our legal limit.

Great day fluking with some great friends. Back at it tomorrow, hope it holds up!!

This was a great day on the water with a great bunch of friends. First congats to my fishing partner and friend WMD Fred on his personal best!! We were praying that fish would hold up at 8.55 lbs althouth we pretty much new that would not hold up. Allen thanks again for putting us on the fish again! I know you didn't want to mention the big one that gotta away and who knows what could have been, but it was Fred's day for sure and as far as i'm concered there isn't a better puller than Fred Monaco!!! Every time i'm on the Reel Class we always put a great catch together and that is no joke! Allen,Kenny,Brian,Ryan,and Fred it is my pleasure to fish with such a classy bunch of guy's!! :) By the way the fried chicken wasn't bad either!! :D
