Sounds like you had an awesome day...Congrats!!![cool][up]
Good Day of Fluke Fishing
Launched from the highlands at about 6:45..the fog was brutal...once we got out of the marina we could only see about 100 yards or so ahead...got out around the hook at about 10 after 7 and the first three drifts were non stop action...drop it down n reel it back up..all fish were small between 10-14 inches..about 15-18ft of water...then went out deep into the sandy hook channel...put 5 keepers in the box up to 19 1/2"...by the days end we had put over 80 fish in the boat between 4 of us..by far the best day fluking we have had in years....

Did you catch over 80 fish and released them or put over 80 in the boat.?
No we threw all back except the five..all five keepers were 18"-19 1/2"..we stopped fishing in the area of the first few drifts becasuse we were going through bait so fast and wanted to try to get a few keepers so we left and headed out to deep water in/around the channels...we left early because our friend got an unexpected call and has to go into work so we cut the day short a few hours...if teh fishing is anything liek it was today than you guys shld have a great time on the 6th
