Not so Bad DAY...
Hey guys, I went on the fluke trip with a buddy of mine. We spent most of time hunting for flukes on the New Seabury to Waquoit wiyh most time spent at Succonnessit. I caught like seven flukes, but all of them are undersized and got gutted with hooks every time I throw in. I used one of the fisherman's issue on fluke's article on rigging for large. i used a whole body squid and a gaskamatu octopus hook 7/0 on the circle hook and it worked like hell! And I caught a 18 inches flat keepah! It weight about 2 or 3 lbs. I also caught scups, just three of them. I got the picture. I also caught other species.
We got plenty of little guys and only one keeper, But we did great on getting variety.
Final tally.
Striper
Fluke
sea robins
sculp
sandshark
bluefish
and crab
I even almost nabbed a keeper fluke on the fluke bullet w/ a fly on the teaser rig I made by using Frank Daiagurnat's.
My question is now, which circle hook do you recommend for catching flukes? The little guys even swallowed whole. The wide gap kahal hooks aren't working on their mouth.
I used t he filleting technique and it's great!
