You da man
Holy rip tide !
Great job brother! I don't blame you for throwing them back! You'll catch bigger! Thanks for sharing and Good luck with everything my friend!
Mark thank you so much my friend!! Good thing coming soon! I really appreciate it a lot!
Ayyy!! At least you caught something brotha! It looked like a fun time👌🏾👌🏾
Haha it made it all worth it! Thanks for watching man!!!
Congrats on the catches. Nothing wrong with throwing them back from time to time.
You are right John. Catching them is very fun as it is. Thanks for stopping in!
Getting stoked for fluke! Nice job dude. Let’s get this channel some subs!
Thanks so much! Good luck out there. I appreciate every view. Thanks for watching 👌
first fish of the summer!
Just a helpful hint on measuring fluke. Lay the fluke on top of the tape measure. When you place the tape measure on top (brown side) you are now adding the girth of the fluke-which will give a slightly higher measurement than the fluke actually is. It doesn’t really matter on a fluke that is obviously over 18 inches but it can make the difference if it’s around the 17 inch mark and the 18 inch mark.
Hey Andrew, I hear you. If it’s too close to call I just throw it back. You can see the measuring board I used. I usually measure from the bottom but I grabbed the old tape measure to get a second look. Measuring in the sand can be tricky because it’s uneven. Thanks for watching.
Always great on opening day, but you always gotta get that keeper. I suspect you may decide to hold on to it next time
Hey Sean you are so right. Next time I may have to reconsider! Thanks for stopping in.
Regulations suck, but they keep the sport alive for the most part! What still blows my mind ishow you fish for anice "keeper" Fluke at 18+ inches and those damnthings can get to be 3 to 400 lbs! Lol
Good luck Steve!
I know regulations are a pain!! Maybe flukes older brother halibut can get that big but at least around here in nj 20lbs is just about the state record. Thanks so much for stopping in!!
Water here is 70 already
I’m jealous uncle Richie!!
Just wondering do you think early season fluke fishing from surf is better or is middle to late summer ideal. I just got into surf fishing for fluke in LBI last yr and love the fluke content, it's fun. Also are waders for this type of fishing a must cause of the colder water or is it optional when the water warms up
Hey Andrew, for the surf its a little early. I’ll start fishing the surf around June to see if anything is going on. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s earlier though this year. Waders are optional. I’ve worn them on my last few trips but I just went out yesterday and I didn’t wear them. Depends on the weather. No waders for me means summer! Thanks so much for watching!
