Cbass/Flounder
Fisheries Task Force

Thought the flounder had begun in earnest.

Then sea bass would bite.

And knowing that bass are going to be the target - drop and catch flounder.

Brutally slow some days, others very satisfying. Mostly just scratch dinner up.

Nicked a few flounder last Saturday. Better than that perhaps. We've been catching some -a few- for a month; now we're focusing on them.

Oddly enough, with the size limit 2 inches bigger this year we've not had a boat limit yet.

More tagging opportunities though.

After a decade of tightening recreational and commercial quota management, I think sea bass numbers have declined to below their pre-nine inch federal size limit population.

A tough summer; tough if you expect to fill a box with sea bass. Not so bad if you want to enjoy a day on the water and don't mind just catching a dinner or two.. And every once in a while either having to go out to dinner - or buy freezer bags to put fish up!

If you're the type that likes their sea bassing to include a nervous period when you need to count your fish; make sure you aren't over the 25 fish limit; then maybe I'll see you in late fall.

Maybe.

Had some nice days of fishing early in the week - worst of the heat. Decent sea bass; numbers not too unlike last week's.

And then.. Struggle.

Sea bass are as 'here' as they are going to get. Some days are mighty fine, even a few limits this week. Other days - eh, scratch up a mess for a dinner or two.

Overall, averaging 12 to 15 keepers per person.

It's fishing..

Might have thought it was the first week of May. That's when we usually see some of the prettiest fish of the year.

Lost a couple days to weather early in the week.
