FISHERMEN/MONDAYS FLUKE FISHING

I knew there was No way we would catch in the area we found them 2 days ago.

Conditions would be crap so I opted to take a ride. Naturally conditions were horrible there also, no breeze & no current, had to power drift all day working a bunch of pieces.

We had short action, a bunch of decent sized keepers but it was not easy at all. Lost a lot of rigs. Catskill John landed 3 beauties including a new Monthly pool leader at 4 pounds 15 ounces. Raymond and several others had two nice fish and so on.

Just a quick story to show the kind of customers I carry and why I love them and what I do....

Last Monday, Henry a customer for 22 years lost his very expensive set up over the side. The Man was so upset as it was his favorite bass rod in the fall. On Thursday, Mustachio Richie another longtime customer caught the Rod, attached to it were two nice Lobsters.

After making sure the Rod was the correct one, I asked Richie this morning if he would be willing to return the Rod to another Fishermen Brother. There was No question, no but what, the Man handed me the rod like a gentleman and smiled. Made my heart feel good, gave Richie a couple trips on me to say Thank you for doing the right thing without even thinking about it. That my friends is a true Sportsman and an awesome American!

Love ya Rich, good Karma coming your way....

Capt Ron,

If you can guarantee me two lobster for every fluke rod thrown overboard, I'll be down tomorrow with quite a few rods.

Great story and like the previous poster said, what are the odds of recovery and two 🦞 to boot. That's a story for Ripley's Believe It or Not
