Hi there fluke fans...
Well I finally made the trek to the SnowGoose2 over in Port Chester,NY. yesterday.
I'll have to say first off that the boat looks a lot bigger on their website, but still had plenty of room considering it was filled to capacity.
Now on to the fishing. Started off slow untill I get a nice smack & lost what ever it was, but a gent next to me "Tony" gets a keeper fluke about 1 minute after I lost my hit. All day action, unfortunately for me it mostly sea robins but BIG ones. I ended up with only 1 short fluke & countless sea robins, Tony had about 5 fluke 2 being keepers my neighbor JB only got 1 short fluke & a mess of sea robins. Pool winner a nice 6lb. fluke caught by a kid about 11-12 years old, you can see it on their website in the reports forum.

Over all a fun day & I will go back to them, on a side note; I started off with a chartreuse skirt getting only 1 robin, took it off & used just a plain 4/0 circle hook & then the bites picked up. So that kinda adds fuel to the fire reguarding my other post about mono/braid skirt colors etc...
Until next time...
John. |

I never noticed til someone pointed it out to me, green colors seem to pull in a lot of skates while fluke fishing. I like to stick to mostly whites and pinks. Occasionally other colors depending on the forage.
