Frances Fleet Fishing Report 8/12/08

Capt. Paul reported yesterday's 7am full day trip was excellent. Despite the torrential downpours and wild weather to start the day once the rain abated the fish turned on and the customers aboard managed to put over 90 good size fluke and sea bass in the boat with some anglers limited and others close to it. Even tough weather cannot seem to hold this blazing fishery down! Look for an update in a few hours as to the status of today's outing with Capt. Rich.Capt. Don reported yesterday's AM 1/2 trip went quite well despite some awful weather. Anglers had some nice size fluke and a few sea bass plus a bunch of shorts.

Capt. Rich reported a great day of fluking on the fluke/sea bass trip today. A modest group of anglers brought at least 80 nice fluke to the nets today. Very few sea bass today. Biggest fish was around 9lbs and both Bob from NJ and Hank had their limits today just to name a few guys who limited out. A lot of fish over 4lbs today. Just another fantastic day. Next 7am trip sails tomorrow morning aboard the Gail Frances.

Capt. George reported a very small group of anglers enjoyed a pick of good size fluke and a few jumbo sea bass to 5.5 lbs on tonight's PM trip. One angler had 5 nice fluke and two giant sea bass and also had a double header of fluke. Tandem bait rig with just squid and spearing was the top producer. One large bluefish as well.
