We did one from another site last year. Got three boats together (mine and two others) and fished locally out of Pt. Jude. Everyone had good time, both fishing and the after fishing get together. I'd be up for doing that.

I'm with MM... I'd like to do a trip, but it would be more fun (IMO) to get a bunch of boats together, much like togfest (which I'm hoping to not miss this year)

The only drawback to the togfest way is you end up with half as many boats actually showing up and a bunch of guys are not able to get a spot on a boat. The other good thing about a bigger boat is even if it ends up being a little snotty we can still go plus everyone can bs and hang out. tho original idea for togfest was to raft up a few boats but it's just been to lumpy both years to pull off.

I would be up for it but would to prefer to fish in my own boat. I would meet you anyplace, even Nantucket. I actually enjoy fluke fishing, I can do it all day. Nothing like feeling a doormat in 100' of water.

Thumbs up

I'd up for it either way cattle boat or if we go the private boat route. Have not been out by Nantucket or nomans for fluke so I'd be interested in checking it out

Mako Mike that was such a fun time last year

Domination takes full concentration..

i'm in either way if the day works. Summer weekends are tough, lets get a date soon so we can all block it off before schedules get filled up.

If we do private boats I'm in with my boat.

I didn't realize it was just $85 for a Nantucket trip. I thought it was much pricier. Prefer not to spend more than $100 on a boat trip unless its thunnage. I could do either private or HH (or both).

For numbers (off Newport), late May - first half of June. For size, but more scattered fish in deeper water, July.
