Well I fished with JC and a few other guys with Captain Roger Bing on the Bingo. This was originally supposed to be an offshore tuna/tile trip, but due to the weather forecast we decided to go fluking instead.
I am really glad we decided to stay inshore and go fluke fishing because we were on the fish pretty good all day. I stuck to jigging most of the day and did pretty well with 2 and 3oz Spros. A few guys dragged bait, but I think the guys jigging did much better. We hooked a few monster bluefish, 3 cow nose rays, a whole mess of short fluke and a bunch of seabass. I think the total for the day was about 8-9 keeper fluke to about 5 or 6#, and a dozen or so keeper seabass to about 4-5#. We caught a ton of short fish throughout the day as well to keep us all happy and in the action. I believe JC had the biggest fluke and biggest seabass out of the group. Hopefully JC can add some things that I may have missed, but it was another phenomenal trip on the Bingo.
