All prepared to fish fluke and blackfish from jetty rocks today, but I got in touch with Fred & we canceled yesterday. He expected 30 mph northeast winds, and it did rain this morning here in North-Central Jersey.
Fluke are good for the keeping through tomorrow, though I wonder about the water conditions. The season closes thereafter, so if I do get over and down the shore to fish with Fred this fall, I'm not buying any killies. He mentioned blues and stripers as our targets in addition to blackfish.
Just have to wait and see about Oct. 10th. This is the second time since my family returned from CA that fishing with Fred got canceled due to weather.
Three is the charm my friend. Yesterday was the right call, so nasty, today no rain but still NE wind, gusts to 30mph, surf is at 8.5 foot waves, flooding too.
ReplyDeleteNow we just have to hope the 10th is good. Of course, if we go even later, we might have a better shot at stripers, but blues come early in numbers, so let's hope.
