This is the second fluke video using a chartreuse tail. You guys are definitely on to something. Very enjoyable video. 😊
Devil is in the details :)
Really nice! Good video!
great footage at the end with you fishing that steep sandbar. Finding these sure-thing fluke spots is part of the fun. One of my favorite steep soft edges in NY got messed up by last week's storm so have to wait a bit before the steepness reforms. Went to beach for a bit on Wednesday and it looks like we are already in summer mode of too many people fishing and too many shorts. My son and I counted we had 22 shorts and only 1 NYS keeper whereas a couple weeks ago, easier limits and 50% keepers. Still a lot of fun to be out front in the surf and sand. Good luck rest of the season
Finding new spots with a proven technique is the pinnacle of this sport.
Awesome!
It's worth remembering that sand bars are moving all the time with different tides and winds and waves.
I'm jealous of your fishery up there. I live by the Chesapeake Bay and I fish for flounder a lot. So far it's been the pits everywhere I've been, lots of tiny shorts and no good ones. And they raised the limit from 16 up to 17.5", so it just got harder. But I refuse to quit trying. Our Gulp get chewed up by tail biters a lot, the croakers and spots and little flounder are tough on them. I try other soft plastics and even with Procure they don't seem to work as well.
Thanks for the upload!
11:38 now thats an actual fishing hole
Great video. Would you say that the fluke might be more concentrated on the steeper sand bar edge as opposed to the beach edge?
Not necessarily. Having a steep lip at the edge of the sandbar gives fluke options to ambush their prey. However, one thing is for certain. There is minimum water depth needed for fluke to stay dug into the sand and ready to pounce. No way, no how would a prize worthy fluke be willing to expose itself to an osprey if its not desperate for a meal. If there are particular areas of the trough that becomes too shallow, they will be forced to stage up elsewhere that provide deeper coverage.
@@shore-moneyfishing1939have you looked for them at night in shallow water? In some places people gig (spear) flounder at night in very shallow water because they're not afraid at night. You might be able to catch them at night there in skinny water.
Went out Wednesday morning outgoing tide Monmouth County NJ and fished a trough similar to yours. Caught many many fish but all were shorts, wondering if I need deeper water.
These troughs depending on the time of the year will hold a mixed bag of fish. The opportunity of a shoremat can happen anytime.
Where are you located? I’m heading down towards OC/Strathmere this weekend, would love to link up!
Where ARE you? I've been on No. MA and So. NH beaches for two weeks. I read the water pretty well. NUTHIN'
Tri-state area
Are you finding there's a lot of smaller fish this year compared to last year?
Not really. It’s been a mixed bag just like last year.
Question? Do you throw it on to the bar and then pop it off letting it float down into the trough?
You can defly try that 😀
What kind of rod is that? Do you have a link to it. The link you have doesn’t work for me.

What gear do you recommend for this type of fishing??
I'll do a gear video soon. Thanks!
You have NO respect for releasing the fish !!!
Throw them a little higher in the air !!!
Appreciate the videos and the information you share but your lack of respect for the fish when releasing them is terrible and unsportsmanlike.
Release with care. They are fragile
