North River Fluke??

..anyone ever catch them there? I don't ever remember them North of the Canal years ago, but Slingah and I caught a couple of them today on jigs along with a handful of schoolies.

"...you want to catch more fish?..fish
more days.

I homeport there and have never done it myself but have wanted to try. But yes people do fluke there, usually in Aug. I'm sure not as good as Ply area or the cape but you can get dinner. Preferable a weekday so you can drift the channel w/o too much traffic.

If ya got access to a boat, they can be jigged up at the outflows of the estuaries like the end of the Herring River, along in front of the sand spit, etc. Fish the outgoing. Seems to work better for me.

Speaking of the Plymouth/Duxbury bay area, anyone know of any specific spots for fluke or best methods to catch them? Took the family and some seaworm out in the bay last weekend and only found skates, about 15 of them! Thanks

I think you might have done better with mummichogs. You can get them at Baymen Outfitters
if you call ahead of time.
