I will incur the wrath of the absolute minority by saying the fluking and weakfishing are borderline epic. Somehow a few anglers aren’t cashing in. Sympathies.
On the weakfish front, I remain a tad surprised at the fine size of many releases. I had fugure these layered run fo weaks would all be spikes at best.
Remember, weakfish arrive in waves, meaning we’re seemingly seeing a few influxes of sparklers. This was proven via one of the more definitive studies done on weakfish. Does anyone recall the name of the fellow who lectured locally on that study? I have to believe we are going to see insane night weakfishing near Barnegat Inlet as the accumulated biomass moves out next month.
I caught some good static. This weekend. I had written that I felt the better surf fluking was on the south part of the Island. Three different folks got hold of me and raved about some of the best fluking they have ever seen – and it was mid-Island northward. One gal was ecstatic, having bagged out for the first time ever. Another said, “We’ve been eating fluke every night.”
One of the more common Facebook pics shows folks who have culled out their fluke catches to take home only the biggest and prettiest.
I have often noted – from a cook’s angle – that fluke are one of those rare fish – along with tuna – where the meat is as delicious be the fish small, medium, or large. I guess that fill the saying, “It’s all good.”
I was on the beach at Harvey Cedars where the bunker were being blasted by dolphin. The east winds have blown in 78-degree water.
Wave Note: I was crunching wave forecasts with Weather Service and things could get testy by the middle of the upcoming week. Very long period swells could show, via a developing disturbance off Puerto Rico.

Ones of Toms fluke on his guide today 23 inches 3.8 lbs((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Today I caught 84 fluke which is the most fluke I ever caught in a day. I caught 19 legal sized ones but could only keep my limit of 5 which are pictured. I think they are all between 4 and 5 lbs.. It sucks having to throw back others that were close to 4 lbs..(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Polly's Dock ...
Capt. Jack’s rundown is a fine reflection on the way of the bay. Hello All, |
