Some good info there Gerry. I am looking forward to putting it to good use on Saturday.

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

great post gerry. really interested in trying the dollar in the pot pool. just have to figure out what to do with the loot if no one catches a keeper fluke. It's been known to happen on my boat! :o

If no one catches a keeper, it goes into the fuel tank ;)

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

Really tough day today. No wind at all. The Captain power drifted, but no luck. Only a handful of keepers on the boat. I remembered my Fluke 101 lesson. I tried salmon red gulp. No luck. Green gulp, no luck. Tried both naked and tipped with spearing. No luck. Tried both tipped with squid. No luck. Finally, switched to the old spearing/squid combo. Caught one short and a sea robin.
Sometimes, the fish wins....

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

Yeah fishing with no drift is tough... Sounds like you pulled out all the stops but conditions trump everything...

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

What's the best or a good spinning set up for fluke

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

For jigging

Re: Fluke Fishing 101
 

7 foot light or medium rod with a fast action tip and any small light weight spinner which is designed for salt water use...

You want to keep your set up as light weight as possible since you'll be working the rod all day...
