Hi gang. It turned out to be a banner fluke day. A couple of the customers were asking me this morning before we left how I thought the fluke fishing was going to be, and I told them that I thought it would be slow with the hot weather and no breeze, boy was I wrong. It turned out to be one of the better trips of the year. We had limits on the boat today. Bruce Abel of Chestnut Ridge, NY boated another beauty, 8-1/2 lbs in the deep again. We had a total of 120 keeper fluke today. Capt. Al will be at the helm tomorrow, Wed., I'll be shaping up for tomorrow's 3:30 trip. The only bad thing about tomorrow is that they are calling for some strong southwest winds, but Thurs. and the rest of the weekend sound great. Thanks. Capt. Scott. www.prowler5.com
