Set out today bright an early on an O/B trip. Weather was great, seas were calm, everybody was ready to fish.

Broke out into the bay and was great with 5-7 lb Blue Fish boiling, stopped and the boys had a great time bringing in a few fish and playing catch and release for another 30 minutes.

Started back to our initial mission of Fluke and Sea Bass. Got to the outside and made our first drop, a couple shorts, a bird and then two keepers 18 1/2 and 20". Made a few more drifts and just shorts.

Motored out to our second spot and had a good pick of Sea Bass from sub legal to 16", boated 3 more keeper Fluke 19-20".

Moved a little bit and hit some Porgy's, most were small but did mange 6 nice keepers, along with more Sea Bass.

Went a little closer into shore to a nice little hole and had 2 more keeper Fluke 19 1/2 and 23" as well as a dozen and a half throw backs.

Days total 7 Keeper Fluke, 6 Keeper Porgy's, 6 Keeper Sea Bass, and 8 Blues kept to 7 lbs.

A Very good day of fishing with a healthy variety, no Monster fish but a real good catch. Was suppose to be a 1/2 day trip but stayed out a little longer as the fishing was good.
