I'd like to take my brother and his 2 boys (ages 11 and 12) on a full-day inshore trip this year. They seem to be interested in fishing, but have very little experience. I was thinking of a trip split between trolling for stripers and drifting for fluke.

Any boat recommendations? I think the only 6-pack boat I've ever been on was Al Anderson's "Prowler". I remember thinking that I've never caught that many fish in one day, and that I hadn't been screamed at like that since I was at Marine basic training. So I'd like a guy who has the right temperment not to scare the bejeezus out of a couple of little kids.

Anywhere between Niantic CT and Pt Judith would be great. And I know June is good for stripers, are the fluke around then as well?

Thanks,

Jim

Try Capt. John Rainone in the Pt Judith area. His boat is the Lil Toot
Great guy and a seaworthy boat
