Fox in the henhouse!

[Billfish715]

We fished for bonitos and false albacore in some "sporty" seas on Sunday. It didn't stop us from catching fish and it didn't stop the pair of draggers from raking the fluke off the Manasquan Ridge and the surrounding areas. The ridge is always a staging area for fluke which are on the move to offshore wintering grounds. If you are headed out that way and don't find too many fluke, just be advised that the foxes are out there and they know where those big "hens" are lying. I haven't seen the draggers all season, but they are around now! If you are worried about the fluke fishing tailing off because of the weather, worry more about the foxes scooping them up.
