I read all the other bay area fluke reports this evening which were not very truthful. The morning bite was even worse today than the afternoon trips according to other fellow fishermen I know that fished other boats from the same marina. Several private boat owner friends told me this evening it was one of the worse days this year. Anyone who is saying different on this web-site should be castrated. I hope this doesn't become the norm on this web-site because I rely on it for some of my information.
We do not blame the captain, mates, or boat if the fish don't co-operate. Keep the BS on the dock. Nothing worse than reading how great the fishing is than finding out from the people who are down at the docks everyday that the fishings really off.
Honesty is the best policy in the long run. Keep NJ Fishing.com real or the web-site will suffer like a few before it. Look what happened to Assbarn. No one believes anything coming off that web-site. And that was once a bigger web-site. Thank you for understanding.
I was on a boat that fished areas that "Bay Area" headboats frequently fish (even saw one or 2 in that general area while we were there), and we got our boat limit of big fluke. I guess you could come castrate me or the captain or whoever posted the report, but it's not BS. Just because you and the guys you know didn't have a good day doesn't mean no one had a good day. You can try to read between the lines, and you can go out and fish hard and learn some tips that might help you catch when no one else is catching (I've seen it enough times to know fishing is not all luck). Otherwise, you're just whining and threatening to cut people's privates off. That doesn't help anyone.
