Flukin the Upper Shrews
The upper Shrewsbury did not disappoint on opening week for fluke. First decent day to get out yesterday. Tide and wind were certainly not cooperative but the fluke were. Got 8 keepers on the wonder rig including this really nice 26 inch, 7 pounder! I would have bet $1000 that I had a big bluefish on when this fish hit - took line and started screaming out away from the boat. Then it got real 'flukey' and settled in to a slow, steady retrieve.
For all of you nay-sayers out there - Gamakatsu #4 (not 4/0) octopus hook right in the corner of the mouth!
