Nantucket fluke

[MakoMike]

Just a heads up guys, I'm looking into booking Captain Eric's new boat for a Nantucket fluke trip sometime next summer. I'll let everyone know if and when anything develops.

Interested.

 

[BennyV]

Definitely interested.

I'm surprised there is not more interest in a trip like this. This area has consistently produced DD fluke.
I'm booked on 2 trips for the Shoals and I'm looking for more.
This is the place to fish if you're serious about big fluke.

I’ve never been fluking out there. We went on vacation there once and I fell in love with the island.

I haven't been able to get hold of Eric yet, I'll post something when I talk to him.

I have interest, it's tough for me to commit right now.

That's O.K. so far I haven't even been able to get hold of Eric.

if this develops into a trip, put me down for "interested"

Just in case it comes down to this, do you guys prefer a weekday or weekend trip? I would imagine it will be more difficult to set up a weekend trip.

I'm good for either. It will be harder to fill a weekday trip.

 

[BennyV]

Either

I'd be interested, but only if it left from a MA port. I'd hate to drive all the way to MTK to turn around and head back Northeast.

He leaves from Fairhaven MA.

I could possibly do this - keep me in mind.

Same here. I'm interested, A weekend would be better for me.

I'm supposed to talk to Eric tomorrow, when I do I'll report back.

O.K.I just got off the phone with Eric. He's not going to book any Nantucket fluke trips on the new boat for a while. He needs to get to know the boat and what it'll do and won't do. He may schedule a couple of "exploratory" trips with a very limited load. It'll be a long day since the ride to and from the grounds will take almost a half day. As mentioned earlier, the boat doesn't have any bunks, that situation that may change for the 2020 season, but for 2019 there won't be any. If and when he schedules something he said he would contact me and I'll see what I can put together. Bottom line is don't plan on anything but something does come up it will probably be a short notice trip.
