Now at 5:10am before I leave to work in a few, I’m getting fluke fever and not something cool to have on your mind when your work drive is 1:30 minutes drive without traffic to the job site. Great Video Men and it was awesome to watch.
We had the full line from the 100 to the 450 out there, and the 350 and the 450 were much better suited for that deep water fluke fishing, with the 450 being the best.
Hey Kristopher - that's the Plano Edge Jig. It's designed for largemouth bass jigs, but it fit the some of the fluke jigs, especially the smaller teasers for the chicken rigs, pretty well. Here's the link: planomolding.com/products/edge-master-jig-plase600?variant=40468105461920 - Jimmy
thats not a door mat our regs in ny allow 18.5 in min. i dont keep them unless there 19 and up. biggest one of the year for me is 26.5 and i didnt call it a door mat. my pb was just over 30 in. and i threw it back
Everything he said about fighting a fluke is on 📍. If you’ve fought enough and lost some too ; u understand this. 😂 I’ve dropped a couple nice ones half way up or better and I knew the hook set was sus. It happens
you can call me a virtue signaling couch fisherman all you want but theres no reason to keep a female fish that size. From personal experience I can tell you that releasing my PB fluke at just over 11lbs still sits with me well after 5 years and I'm so happy I didnt keep her for her cheeks. Lead by example OTW, you have a large following and make excellent videos.
If I want to keep a couple of fish for the table, I’m going to and you can say whatever you want to if doing that was causing problems with the numbers of fish that were out there then they would stop it just because you don’t want to keep it a fish to eat doesn’t mean somebody else can that doesn’t mean I have to keep a whole limit
J/k...phenomenal fish!
"hes gonna lose his cheeks later today" classic line Chris! Beautiful boat and spectacular fluke. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching Tim!
Nothing like Nantucket fluking. Love it!
Thanks for watching! Counting down the days til next season!
@@OnTheWaterMedia can't wait boys
Chris your the man! Thanks for another great video!!! Nothing like Nantucket fluking!!!
Some of my favorite fishing is fluke. Can't wait for the season to open again.
We can't wait either! Thanks for watching!
Nah...a doormat is a doormat...lol. 10+
Wow, that was a great day on the water. Congrats on an amazing catch.
Montauk is still the best fishery in the USA but you guys are hammering. Great stuff

Hahaha best part is we're right around the corner from fluke season! Thanks for watching Sam!
Very nice boys - Good show - Can't wait!
Thanks so much for watching Johnny!
This was a nice one greetings from Gio Western Long Island sound.
Hey Gio - thanks for watching! Western Sound is a great fishery.
Great video guys, enjoyed it! keep up the great work!
excellent video! just in time too with the season rite round the corner..
Nice fish (doormat)! We will be out there this summer on St. Pete Sport Fishing
Awesome video thank you!
Tell Jimmy 2 stay put!
Nice Halibut
Its a good goal to strive for too
Nice post and even better fish. What where the rods that the Penn 400 was strapped to?
We had a lot of technical gear used in this episode, and we will be making a post with all of the gear used here soon! Thanks for watching
What bucktail are you using? The one at the end of the video when you show teeth marks on it
Berkley Fusion 19 Bucktail Jig - great jig, designed for bottom fish like fluke

What rods were used
Hey guys! What is the rod power on the battalion?
We had the full line from the 100 to the 450 out there, and the 350 and the 450 were much better suited for that deep water fluke fishing, with the 450 being the best.
No cod?
Fluke was the target species, and we did have some bycatch of sea robins, and dogfish, but no cod!
Try metal jigs like Crippled Herring (Rapala/Luhr Jensen), and Kandlefish, (Tall Pines Tackle) for even better catches.
That's a great idea, and we will be bringing some metals next time! Thanks for watching!
Lip hook a live bait (finger mullet, snapper blue, etc.) to your jig head and hang on. That combo landed my personal best of 11.5 lbs.
I didn't see you bleed a single one of these fish?
Jimmy what box are you storing your jigs in? I really like it and wanna get one

Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed it! One more reason to get back out there to the fluke grounds!
@@OnTheWaterMedia absolutely! I’m locked in with you guys. This year I may start my sub.

Cardinal sin jimmy. Never real up always drop back and try and hook it again
I know! "Beat them back to the bottom." I was too distraught, and had fought the fish for so long, I just ripped it to the surface.
Doormat minimum 10lb. Cow 50lb even in today's standards no less than 40lb and Gator 15 and up. Just saying :)
Wudder
Sorry over 10 in my opinion is a doormat.
cmon! ice those fish..kills them quick and fresh...eat them yes...needless suffering?? not so good
what fishing rod is that
