Opening day fluke Shark River

[jakesdad]

Got an early start as low was at 8:30, caught lots of shorts off the park and 3 keepers before the outgoing tide died, Waited out til the incoming and could not buy a hit. Ran up into the river, put 3 more keepers in the boat and many shorts.

Ended the trip with 6 keepers for 2 of us, water temp on the outgoing 57.8, on the incoming 54.6. After a little recon yesterday, I expected more.

Fish and Game was on the water checking coolers, they went by once and just waved, when they saw us catching they came right up alongside.

Let's all enjoy the Fluke season, and please be respectful of everyone, there are enough fish to go around.
