Captain Matt reported a good day of fishing today aboard the Gail Frances during the full day trip. The fluke nearly outnumbered the anglers 4:1, and the black sea bass also made a respectable appearance in coolers. John Ribeiro from Plymouth, MA won the pool with an 8 lb fluke (see photo below, courtesy of Tammy), and was able to boast another 5 fluke up to 5 lbs. Ricky from MA’s bragging rights include catching his limit of Fluke today.
Captain George reported that both half day trips were quite slow, due to tricky drift conditions. Both trips managed to scrape together a handful of fluke, and had some decent short action to keep anglers at the rail interested. The black sea bass were rather shy today, as well, with only a few making it into coolers. The pool-winning fluke were in the 4 lb range for both trips.
Tomorrow, the Gail Frances sets sail at 7AM for the full day Jumbo Fluke & Sea Bass trip, and the Admiral Frances sails at 8AM and 1PM for the Half Day Fishing trips. The last Whale Watch of the season is scheduled to sail tomorrow at 1PM on the Lady Frances, and the first Tuna Trip of the season will be leaving the dock at 10PM on the Lady Frances tomorrow evening!
