Fluking improves despite lack of drift

Though power drifting was necessary all day, Capt. Ron Santee reported good fluke action on his Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands that included catches of up to four, several 3-pounders — and a 4 13/16-pound pool fluke.

The Royal Miss Bell reported much improved fluking that was paced by an 11-year-old boy who picked his limit from 18 fluke.

Miss Belmar Princess had a busy day with lots of chub mackerel plus some blues, sea bass and bonito. A couple of big sand tiger sharks were also hooked.

Light winds continue tomorrow with southwest winds at10-15 knots plus a chance of showers or thunderstorms.
