Finally a Fluke Limit

[Gerry Zagorski]

Joey Dah Fish and I got an invite from Avet George to fish his boat Wednesday. Perfect day with drifting conditions right around .7 to 1.2 knots pretty much the whole time despite the full moon. The fish were hungry, especially for the last few hours of our trip.

We ended up with probably 20ish fish only keeping 15 and this was the first time this year I can recall getting a boat limit. I say we, but George was the one with the hot hand and probably caught 80% of the fish. The one spot we hit towards the end of the day was paved with Fluke and George put on a clinic. It seems every time we'd go to set back up on the drift, George would drop down and immediately hook up... If he missed the fish they would come back and hit him again.... All Joe and I could do was shake our heads and get the net.

All keepers caught on Bucktails tipped with gulp and a gulp teaser. We had a few fish in the 5 - 6 pound range but most were 3 pounds or so.
