FISHERMEN/ANOTHER DOORMAT TODAY! BIG FLUKE ARE BITING..Saturdays Report.
Didn't know what to expect after yesterdays weather and South wind...Naturally, we had a roll that was left over but it didn't keep the Big girls from biting! Lack of conditions, No current and not much breeze kept the drift down to under a half knot....Didn't matter though as the guys who worked hard all got rewarded with Big Fish.
Tom Fishing in the Bow started it off with a beautiful 7.14 pound Fluke then topped it off with another 6.2 pounder.
Chris Zotti & Pat also fishing in the Bow put on a clinic with their Jigging skills and ended the day with 4 & 3 Great fish Each up to 6 1/2 pounds. Couple guys who lost a Charter today were glad they made to us in time and put another 8, 7 and 6 pound Fluke in the box. Several other Great Fluke around the boat along with some Nice Sea Bass.
Highlight of the Trip goes to Frank Hollisi, Milltown, N.J. who landed his personal best and our Third double digit in a week at Ten Pounds, Three ounces, 28 1/2 inches long! Big, Round, Thick Fish. I just about jumped off the top deck to grab the net when I saw him hook up. Rod doubled over like it was stuck in the bottom....Two huge head shakes and the battle began. The sprow Frank was fishing with fell out of the mouth as soon as it went slack in the net. Thank god he didn't get Doe fever and drop his rod when it came to the net, I would have been looking for her again tomorrow!
Back at it tomorrow, not much time left unfortunately as we work hard everyday to get it done.
