It certainly will have an effect on them. They will most likely put on the feed bag and start to move out of the bays and rivers! Will they leave for the season. I don't think so but who knows! It just sux another prime time week of fluke fishing down the drain due to unfishable weather conditions. But that's fishing!

Fingers crossed that this isn’t the blow that pushes the migration to offshore. I remember a few years ago, a big blow came through just as the fluke were heading out and pushed the fish back into the bays and creeks. The hot bite was actually inside the sailboats in Keyport.
Anyone else remember that?

Fluking out of Manasquan Inlet the fluking has been near the Seagirt and Axel reefs. Fluke may go back up the inlet into the bay to wait it out. Maybe

Do you think it's worth surf fishing this weekend with bait?

Fishing for Stripers with all the broken clams on the beach would be your best bet.
