Hit the jones west end beach about 3/4 of a mile east of the inlet. Third surf trip with my son. The air was About 7-8 degrees cooler with the s/w ocean breeze . My son caught his first fluke ever. Released after quick picture. We probably will never try for kingfish there again as we still haven’t caught one. Beach looked fishy bait and birds etc: we must try somewhere else for the elusive surf kingfish - tight lines
