Re: question for fluke bucktailers
These are the topics that make boards like this so great..Lots of info from some really qualified folks and The pro's who do it every day and see it all..
Couldn't agree more on the difference between a drifting 75' or bigger head boat versus a charter in the 30' range totally different movement and drifting conditions.
I fish the A Bomb in cape may --he has a 28' center console with a hard top he drifts fast but we do fish as vertical as possible. It is hard sometimes to adjust from casting out and bouncing back--like we do in belmar--to the straight up and down fishing down south for me..i much prefer working the jig back.
Now for surfacing fluke so far from the boat i think your tail walking fluke and a slower retrieve may help keep the fish under the water. Then a steady constant pressure with the tip up, no pumping of the rod..god i can't tell you how many guys think they are bluefishing!!!and loose good fish to pumping. Each time they drop back the give the fish a chance to shake a hookset
Second__Great discussion thread!!
