Last few times did not do to good in the freshwater. So I figured it was time to do a saltwater shot in Raritan Bay.
First trip I felt a little rusty. From the shore. It was mid morning. The tide was slow and almost all out.
Well it paid off the fluke were there. I caught four on 4" pink gulp mullet, two at 20" and two at 18". CPR

Great catch on the fluke! I've never eaten one...but I suspect they might taste like small halibut?
