SEA HUNTER 9-26 THE 2015 FLUKE SEASON IS OVER. NEXT WE WILL BE HUNTING STRIPERS!!!!!

The 2015 Fluke season ended on a low note. Hoping for a good last week to end the season, As the Fluke started to enter the Sandy hook and Ambrose channels feeding up and getting ready to head east for the winter. Unfortunately mother nature had a different plan.The east and north east winds kept us dockside a few days and the days we did get out we couldn't fish the channels. All in all it was not a great Fluke season this year. Now its time to turn our attention to the Stripers!!! First I will take a little vacation then catch up on some boat and house maintenance before going full steam into the Striper season. I will probably kick things off around October 9th or 10th and then we will be fishing daily from 7:30am till 2:30 pm for the Stripers. Don't forget we have a slot fish this fall we are allowed to keep a slot fish one Striper between 24 and 28 inches but you must have a bonus tag to keep this extra fish. Below is the website that you can get your bonus tag.

So the Striper regulations are one fish between 28 and 43 inches and one fish 43 inches or bigger         and also a slot fish one fish between 24 and 28 inches but you must have the bonus tag in your possession to keep the slot fish.They are not sending them out very fast so don't delay order your now. We will be using different methods to catch the Stripers. Some days we use lures like diamond jigs and shads. Some days we use clams or eels as bait. Whatever it takes to put fish in the boat.
                                           I will see you soon, Capt., Rob
