To date, 2024 has proven to be a very tough year for fluke fishing! This late July date was no different and, despite, beautiful conditions, the bite was finnicky at best with a tone of interference fish mixed in. With the ocean providing very little in the way of keepers and with some intel from my buddy JT of Next Drift Fishing, we decided to make a long move out of the ocean and into the Bay and Kirk, the angler in the video thumbnail, was rewarded with a fluke of a lifetime, measuring 31 inches and 12ish pounds.
More remarkable, this was Kirk's second double digit in 13 days as he had previously caught a 10.2 pounder on the Gypsea out of Brooklyn.
