September 4th, 2008

With the Fluke season closed, there has been an expected increase in “effort” and we’ve had some great reports from in the bays and in the ocean with keeper sized Porgies and Seabass just about any where there is structure on the bottom.

In the ocean, 40 to 60 feet of water seems to be the honey hole… with reports coming from ALL the wrecks and reefs. Hempstead reef and Atlantic Beach Reef have been producing well and the local wrecks like the Stome Barge, the Iberia, the Steel wreck have been consistent too. The Seabass can be caught even deeper too, so don’t hesitate to hit places like the Cholera Banks, the McAllister area, the Yankee wreck or anything else in the area.

In the bays, just about every bridge has some fish on them, especially the bridges closest to the inlet like the Big Meadowbrook, the Loop Parkway Drawbridge and the Loop Parkway Bridge in Point Lookout.

Yesterday, one customer had a limit of keeper Porgies at the Big Meadowbrook with a few keeper sized Seabass as well… nice ones too… like 2 1/2 to 3 pounds!!!

Clams, cut Squid, Sandworms and even live Killies will get these fish to bite around the bridges and in the ocean the Clams, cut Squid and Killies will get them out there!

We have a number of customers experimenting with the 3″ Gulp Squid, Gulp Sandworms, Gulp strip Baits and even the Gulp Clams too…. and they ARE WORKING! People were afraid to try the Gulp products on the Fluke at first and look what happened…. it was the hottest selling product in the store this year! Give this stuff a try for bottom fishing too, you probably WON’T be dissapointed!!
