I will however give you one opinion you can take to the bank... If all you do is complain here on the Interweb, nothing will change... People need to get involved and support the groups and organizations that fight for recreational fishermen's rights and better science, 2 of which you'll see in my signature...
Exactly why mom likes you better, don't see two in Joe's signature..........as a matter of fact he doesn't even have a signature!

Plenty of fluke in Manasquan Inlet. Between myself and another we combined for 28 in 2+ hours (and saw others caught). Yes they were all shorts but many in the 16-17.5” class. And if your like me, whose fishing philosophy over the past few years is just to have the rod bend (not just with fluke but all species). If I catch a few keepers its just a bonus, then you’ll have a nice few extra hours/day.

Some tid bits as to the work being done on your behalf. RFA Nick Cicero at the table in Wash around the 1:27 mark but listen to all of it if you can
https://youtu.be/XPs5cR2vrg4

FYI: RFA Fluke trip Sat June 29 on Capt Ron Fisherman Atlantic Highlands NJ (see sticky post at top of this message board) Still have room and your whopping $10.00 donation believe it not helps get things done to prep for hearings in Washington as you see in the link above. Plus you get to go fishing. Fluke will show for Capt Ron

Good question.. Probably the same reason the porgies are hitting in late April/early May out east, and we don't see them until july... Thats a warm water fish .... Can't say why fish do the things they do.... bob

The doormats they are catching in the NE are making me jealous and that is hard to do.
