FIRST FISHING TRIP OF 2016 AND FLOUNDER FISHING IS ON

4/17/2016

I fished today with Captain Rich Santos on my boat "Skimmer". The boat is all ready to go for the 2016 season with a brand new Mercury OptiMax engine and some new refinements and today was my first day of fishing. Rich and I worked the West Channel area on outgoing tide and came home with a limit of fish and even a couple of short throwbacks. It was good to see smaller fish which means the flounder are breeding and producing some youngsters. Another boat fishing near us also had a limit of 8 fish for four anglers. It is not hot fishing but good enough to be fun and worth doing. The water is clean and it was a beautiful day on the water after a cold spring. Its great to be back on the bay and doing what I love.

I am getting a lot of bookings for the spring bass run so if you want to fish I suggest getting a day set up in my book while there are still a few prime dates remaining.

There is a lot of bait in the bay and I think we will see a good run of weakfish starting in early May so if you want to give that a go then email me at captal@skimmeroutdoors.com to set a date. I just got a few new Penn spinning outfits (Penn Battle II 7 foot graphite rods and 4000 series reels) that are perfect for weakfishing with both plugs and jigs. Fluke season opens on May 15 and I think this will also be a great season for Long Island's favorite fish. 

Another great day on the water with an excellent crew.
