Fluking was incredible!

On same drift a 5 lb. 4 0z. flatty was also taken.
Same drift…
6 lb. and 4lb. sea bass – doubleheader! Nice.
That’s 10 lbs. of sea bass on one lift.
First drift.
On 3 oz. Spro bucktail jig – dressed with “fluke candy” white, w/pink teaser purchased at Causeway.
Same rig worked on those nice fluke caught. Whole squid was gettin’ the job done too.
Near end of trip, hit a big pod of blues.
Joe landed a 9lb.’er and there were other scores as well.
Big porgies taken on the fluke candy setup described above.
Apprx. 10 big porgs came over the rail and they were all around that day.
These Fish were all taken off the Fire Island reef.
The barometer dropped that day, preceding the storm and as it dropped,
the fishing lit up.
