Fishing Reports

Very good fluking today! 19 fares had a steady pick of quality fluke all day with many fares limiting out. Tons of 19 inch beauty throwbacks provided lots of action. Even Bob and Tommy limited out! Excellent fluking now!

Slow morning today on the fluke, but once that tide turned it all changed! Very good bite on the first of the ebb especially on bucktails. That seems to be the magic time the past few days. Plenty of nice fluke to 6 lbs. High hook was 5 keepers. Yesterday saw some great blackfishing aboard the CQIII for Dennis and friends. The blacks were snappin good with a great bite on quality tog to 7 lbs on crabs. A fun day to end the spring tog season!

Some body of fluke around right now! Today was great fishing again. Capt Pete ran the CQIII today and limited out on fluke to 6lbs. in a half day. We had some excellent action on the CQII as well with over 50 keepers and a few hundred 18 plus inch fish released! If it was last years limit, high hooks today would have been over 25 keepers! Nonetheless, several sharpies managed their limit.

Lou and John were on fire landing over 40 fluke between them, 13 of which were keepers! Bucktails were the way to go.

Light tackle bucktailing at its finest right now.

Despite the heavy boat traffic there was some very good fishing. The morning bite for fluke was especially good with a ton of action and plenty of keepers. CQII ended the day with over 50 keepers to 6 lbs.

The morning charter on the CQIII saw some very good bucktailing with fish to 5.8 lbs. We also had a few good drifts in deeper water today (30-40 ft).

Big body of fluke around right now and a ton of sandeels to hopefully keep them here for a while.

If it fluke you are after Now is the time to fish the North Shore!

Real good fluking continues. Today's 1/2 day charter on the CQIII limited out on fluke to 5 lbs. Ton of action and at several occasions all four anglers were hooked up at the same time.

The CQII also had very good results with 60 keepers for the day and a ton of throwbacks. Pool fish was 6.5 lbs. If we were going by last years standards, today the entire boat would have easily limited out on 18" plus fish ! It seems that every year the average fish gets larger and larger. Last year we had a lot of fish 17-18 inch range. This year, we have a ton of 18-19 inch fluke.

It is making for some great action though, especially for those who like to bucktail. And thankfully there are plenty of keepers in the mix as well.

The water chilled down over 5 degrees over the weekend with the northeast wind that blew through. Slowed the bite down over the weekend but nonetheless we still put together some respectable catches of fluke. Some quality fish around with several fluke weighing in over 7 lbs. Largest fluke of the week went to the girl scout troop with an 8 lb beauty!

Sunday mornings half day charter on the CQIII saw a lot of action for John and friends who limited out on fluke to 5 lbs.

Todays trip saw a lot of 19 inch fish as the water warmed up a bit and the bite improved. Ton of throwbacks but many sharpies on board managed their limit. High hook was 7 keepers.

Awesome fluke trip today. 11 fares limited out on fluke to 7lbs!!

Great bite with lots of 18-19 inch fish released as well. High hook was 9 keepers. If it was last years 18 inch limit we would have limited out by 10:30. Bucktails again were the key. If you like shallow water, light tackle fluking at is best, now is the time! This is some run of quality fish right now!

We didnt have enough fares to sail today, but the crew decided on account of the great fishing to go anyway.

The fluke were chewin' once again right outside the harbor. Limited out in no time on bucktails.

This is a great early season bite for sure.

First day a fluking to day turned out to be a great success!

13 fares fluked for half day landing 35 keepers with many in the 4-5 lb class. High hook was 9 keepers!

For those who were willing to bucktail, the fluke action was excellent.

Also heard a report from a boat to the west of us that had a great day as well. Lots of sandeels around. Things are looking good. Lets hope the bite holds up.

Excellent day blackfishing aboard the CQIII. Dennis and his gang enjoyed a solid bite all day long with many quality tog in the mix. Total for the day was 35 keepers to 8.5 lbs for 4 anglers. Green crabs were definitely the way to go today. Fun day all around.
