we have seen an improvement with the Fluke bite and the bait is showing
more every day. Still, the average catch has been only 1-4 fish per angler,
with pool fish 3 - 5 lbs. We have been in Cold Spring and local waters
with fish in all areas but at mid tide we get a 45min - 1 hr. shot and
then things slow up. With the bite the way it was, we did manage to put
the jigs on with plenty of action, and most with 10 - 15 fish in the short
time we jig on these trips. The Blue Fish Trip
remain very good with anglers catching
30-50 fish on jigs and bait (only keeping what they want to take home
(2-5)or there limit). The pools on these trips have been from 2-7 lbs.
Congrats to Tom M. for catching the 4
lb. 14 oz. Derby Fluke to date, but I'm sure we'll see a few
larger fish by the end of the season.

trip was a success, with a great turn out and o.k. fishing. We will be
doing another one, but the date has yet to be chosen. We will be posting
it here as soon as we can fit it in, so please check back often and/or
call. The local fluking has been just OK with Thurs. being poor. We've
been finding some new areas holding fish, and Thurs. NT had a great pick,
with Capt. Glenn at the wheel, Walter came in with the pool of 6 lbs.
12 oz. and Patty getting the lead in our derby with a 3 lbs. 12 oz. catch,
bumping Tom off this week. As well, they enjoyed a nice pick of porgy's
and blues that were in the mix. Sat. morning trip was another good one,
with plenty of action around the boat and Sean taking home the pool with
a 4 pounder.
********************************************************** Date: 07-17-05 From: Lobster Man, <Lobsterrock2000@yahoo.com> Subject: Sea Otter West! Hey Anglers, We've had
a slow pick of fluke this week, and on Sun. afternoon trip we saw a great
bite with everyone taking home 2-5 fish for dinner, however, that was
our best trip, the fishing slowed the rest of the week from 'stepping
stone' to Oyster Bay. The lack of fish encouraged us to plan a trip this
Mon., 7/18 at 6 am, to sail east with
optimism of good fluking. If the bite is good, a long with
the turn out we will be adding a trip like this one once a week.
The NT. Bass/Blues trips have been great we've seen a bass here or there
but the blue fish action on both Jigs and bait has been outstanding with
all anglers taking home plenty of fillets, and some with 30-40 fish a
piece releasing all but there limit. The pools on the fluke have been
2-4 lbs and the blues 7-13 lbs. With the Jigging being so good, we will
switch over on most trips if the fluke are slow, which we all know keeps
everyone smiling, so get down here and enjoy the action. ********************************************************** Date: 07-11-05 From: Lobster Man, <Lobsterrock2000@yahoo.com> Subject: Sea Otter West! Hey Anglers, Hope everyone
enjoyed the 4th, we had a good week with both fluke and blues. On the
fluke scene we picked fish in all different areas, from local to Oyster
Bay, our best days were Mon. am trip with Shep winning the pool of 5 lbs.
Tues., Joan with her 1 st fluke ever and pool of 4 lbs., and this weekend
the bites turned on at the end of each trip with pools to 3.5 lbs with
most going home with 2-3 fish. On the blue fish scene plenty of action
every NT trip baiting most fish and anglers taking home 5 - 10 fish up
to 7 lbs. We are booked on Thurs./ day trips and Sat./ day
trip but the rest of our trips remain open.

We have had a good bite all week, with pool fish to 5 lbs. and some taking home there limit. The nt. bass/blue fish trips have turned more towards blue fish. Things started off slow this week, but the fish still remain in the area and we will start jigging soon. The bass/blue fish pools have been in the 9 lbs. / 20 lbs. range. We are seeing some sea bass and porgies around and would like to make Fri. our full and combo of fluke and sea bass(?). This week 7/9 (Sat.) boat is chartered during the day and open boat at night.
