3.5 weeks of surf Fluke: Report(s)-6/15-7/9

[snapperbluefish101]

Here is some of the proof... I will try to add a few more if I get a moment. As you can see, one of the days I brought a school friend and he caught the keeper instead of me....

The picture of the two fluke on the cooler shows the bigger 20.5" one to the top of the smaller one. Again, I wanna beat that one!

Oh, in case you guys were wondering, the fish have had pretty much nothing but Calico Crabs (Mostly Hard Shell to my surprise) in there stomachs, with a few large sandfleas and actually a few baby asian shore crabs thrown in their gut as well!

The rig is simple. 34" long. 30lb leader. Make a snell with a 4/0-5/0 octopus hook. 12" above from the snell tie a 1.5" dropper for the sinker. From there, make a dropper 4" long 12" above the the sinker dropper, which will be paired with a big 6/0-7/0 gami octopus and later with a big 6" Gulp Nuke Chicken grub when arriving at the beach. I have been using the fluke sides as strip bait for the bottom hook. It's a good combo!

If want a pic, I will be more than happy to post one of the rig!
