Re: fluking in montauk
Official world record fluke was caught in Montauk and from what I understand it was caught on a large snapper bluefish.
Having been stationed there in the Coast Guard I will give you a little advise about fishing there. Early on and early off the water. The afternoon chop there is notorious due to the cold water and heat over the land and about 3-4 in the afternoon it can really get honking and chop it up bigtime. Also the fog that happens out there is like nothing you have ever seen before and a good radar and GPS are a must.
As the Shrimpman has often called it, Montauk is like the promised land and the fishing out there can be nothing short of spectacular.
Be safe and good luck. Hope you nail some big ones.
