    Question No reports=no good

    What's with the lack of reports? Is fishing that bad? Or is everyone being hush hush? Or is it the winds keeping people on land? I'm hoping it's the last one. Charter trip on sat 23rd out of the fort. Give me some confidence guys!! Also heard reports of our long lost friends with the weak lips being caught. Should I ask the captain to combo the trip and get some weakies then fluke?is it work it? Or just go for fluke?

    If your thinking about keeping weak fish I think you shouldn't go because you can onl keep one but if you just want to go for fun try green gulp you can catch both flattys and weak

    To me this sounds like a question for your captain, he would best know where or what species for you to target. I'm sure the lack of reports is directly effected by the wind. I'm sure he will have no problem finding fish.
    Good luck to you, keep us posted to your trip results.
    I love youtube, I can fix anything, maybe youtube can tell me how to catch some fish

    No reports because the winds have been simply impossible most times this year! And especially for fluke, no drift, no fish!! I have yet to have ONE single day that I've had conditions favorable for any decent drift of any kind. Tomorrow MIGHT allow a decent drift, if the winds stay below 10K. Not counting on it.

    Not many boats out there today. The guys who can catch flounder are still on them. Wind like mentioned is a pain this year.

    Fished Saturday 0930 until 1400. Caught three flounder in total, one keeper (18"). Fished the elbow and stakes off Fort. Conditions all but desireable. Wind tough, a little too rough for comfort.
