Bay fluking was good, and Evening Tide Charters was picking up lots, including decent-sized ones going 5 and 6 pounds, along the channel edges and holes. Peanut bunker was doing the trick for larger ones, and plenty of peanuts could be found. Keeping a lookout for weakfish, and he knew about a few anglers who landed some, but there were no large concentrations. Charters will also liveline peanuts for weaks if the trout make a decent appearance, and we love targeting the weaks with light tackle. Usually charters will catch weakies in the mornings before boat traffic spooks the finicky fish, and then the anglers will switch to fluking. Evening Tide Charters is sailing on open-boat trips for fluke every Saturday and Sunday, and call Kyle to reserve and for info.
