Default Re: What's Going On With The Fluke?

Hello to all,

Fishing been off this year for me from last year, I have fished over 25 days for fluke from the opening day and we can't seem to get a bite going for us who bucktail most days. Some of this in the early part of the season is understandable with the colder water early in season. I have 2 good days with 5 fish, one with 4 fish two days with 2 or 3 fish, and lot one or none

I kept a log on my fluke fishing from last year and fishing is off a lot this season for fluke for me. I fish only on party boats and have done great over the years and know its not the boats or me its just that fish is off this season. Why?

I think a big part is this weather with all the rain and south and southeast wind and cold water that just turns the bigger fluke fish off from feeding. The other is Sandy, I think a lot of the bottom has changed and this may have had some effect on the fluke. What we need is a west or north winds and no more rain

Good luck to all Jim C
