Re: 9/7 Fluke Report on Jersey Key
Steve,
Overall it has been a pretty good year for me on the fluke. Mostly fished the tournaments with a few open boat and charter trips mixed in.
No one wants to hear about the limit catches tournament time when you are catching 3-7 pounders. The box may look nice at the end of trip but we are normally fishing for that one fish to get you on the board. 5-7 pounders normally do not cut it on tournaments as we have some of the best flukers competing for the prize and bragging rights.
Total of 9 fluke trips this year. Best trip has been 12 keepers and worst being 1 keeper. Nine trips with 50 keepers = 5.55 average. Plan on doing 2 more trips before the season ends. Hope to end the season with a limit average for the year. Best fish this year has been 8 lbs. The double digit has eluded me so far this year but hopefully will get him within the next 2 weeks.
