Kayak Fishing Fluke Bay or Rivers
Wow it's been a while since I have been on here. Recently got married about 2 months ago and need to get back on the water.
I am planning on heading out tomorrow on my kayak in search of some flatties. Since I haven't been out for fluke this year, are the rivers or bays producing better for small vessels up north this season? I have my usual spots, but don't have a solid strategy since I haven't been fishing consecutive weekends this summer. Also, if anyone kayak fishes on here I would be happy to buddy up. Thanks!

Re: Kayak Fishing Fluke Bay or Rivers
last week kayak fishing really took a dive.
I had been doing really well in the back of the bay - the reach channels - staten island sharrots pier. Also had been doing well launching c beach or officers row at the hook. But the water temps really shot up and both of those areas produced very little last weekend. Jamaica bay..... or off Hoffman island... looking for cooler temps.

Re: Kayak Fishing Fluke Bay or Rivers
Thanks Torchee. Go figure the weekend I want to drop in, its been scorching hot all week long and water temps consistently rising. I'm usually out around the bayside of the hook area but haven't fully convinced myself if I want to cook my brains and lowrance tomorrow.

I've been out on that side of the navy pier a few times as well.

Re: Kayak Fishing Fluke Bay or Rivers
Gotta drop my folks at the airport tomorrow so I'm going to pass tomorrow. By the time I get out there it's going to be later than I would like and I'll be cooking in the sun.
Good luck! Let us know how you make out.
