fluke from surf (not a report)
I usually fish the party boats out of AH or with my buddy on his boat, but on occasion I hit the beach anywhere between keansburg and belford. When I was younger I did ok dragging a killie/squid combo slowly through the surf, but I've probably hit the beach here 15-20 times without a touch using small jigs and teaser (a typical "skinner" setup, although sometimes I use a leadered teaser for top hook). When I hit the beach it's usually a spur of the moment thing, not paying much attention to tides, but I have caught the first few hours of both incoming and outgoing, and still no luck, has anyone else been skunked so bad along this stretch for fluke? I have caught bluefish trying for stripers.
cheers
