    Why John Skinner’s Frugal Fluke Choice was a Game-Changer

    Every application def does have its place. I’ve seen some nice fish come up on those glass minnows but to be honest majority of my ocean fluke have been a 2-3 ounce jig and plain hook teaser above with a gulp grub and strip or A typical high low with gulp grubs and a fresh meat strip. The...

    South of the Point fluke

    I used to do 5-6 montauk trips a summer , but the traffic coming home is absolutely brutal. I go to orient and take the boat ride around and fish that way. Much nicer drive home from orient. Just watch out for the $50 briarmere pies lol

    Quality Keeper Fluke in the Skinny 7/12,7/14 and 7/19.

    Had some a group who fished the smithpoint bait and tackle fluke contest on 7/12. Moved all over and out together a catch of some nice keeper fluke. Only one was weigh worthy just around 5lbs.
