Let's keep out fingers crossed that we finally get a break.

My sentiments exactly... I have seen PB captains saying things like "we got 28 keepers today" right on these pages.. Sounds ok, until you realize there might have been 25 guys on the boat, and 5 or 6 of those guys caught a limit, leaving a lot of guys fishless or with their lone 1 sea bass to take home.. Imagine if the PB captains were able to fluke fish, and then spend the last hour or two sitting on a mound of sea bass.. It would really help their fares justify spending the money to go out on a boat knowing that if their fluke fishing wasn't so hot, sea bass were readily available .. I personally thing it would help the for hire captains a great deal.... bob
