Default Re: You gotta be good....

Smell??. Probably helped, but that fish had no problems because of its lateral line... Fish feed in almost total darkness at times, and the lateral line functions as eyes,ears, nose, and "hands"...
In the winter out on the edge of the shelf, fluke are in 400-500 FOW and deeper, and they eat just fine in very low light conditions for probably 6 months out of every year, so yeah a sightless fluke should do just fine.. Still a pretty rare catch!.... bob
