Default Gambler Wed. Am Fluke.

Went fishing with Capt. Bob and his mighty crew on the Gambler this morning. We had a decent drift with action on Fluke right away. The weather was pleasant with a light breeze . We slugged away at shorts with some keepers mixed in. I ended the day with 1 keeper and 16 or 17 shorts. Bill Burns won the pool with a Fluke between 4 1/2 and 5 pounds. I caught all my fish on chartreuse 4, 5, and 6" Berkley grub tails. I ran out by the end of the trip. Fished a 2 hook chicken rig with a longer leader on the bottom hook. Looking forward to going again next week.

It's just one or two dropper loops with the sinker on the bottom. I like to make the bottom loop a little longer than the top.
