First stop on my favorite south side drop found almost instant action. A couple of short Fluke and quickly Frank ties into a nice fat 5# fish to get things rolling. For the next 4 hours we worked a similar drift line picking both Fluke and Sea Bass of varied sizes plus a few Whitting. When the dust cleared, the box was looking really fine with 15 beautiful keeper Fluke and 3 keeper Sea Bass resting comfortably on ice. Four of today's fish were in the 5-5.3# class so some really thick filets found their way into the take home bags. Matt was literally on fire the entire trip, landing 6 keepers himself and also taking top fish honors. Frank was close behind with 4 keepers and one of the 5 # class fish.
Although no giant fish were caught, this was one of those Fluke days we all dream of with strong action from start to finish. Kudos to an excellent crew for putting on a top-notch performance!
