Fluke in CT

[Tin Cup]

Spent last weekend fishing in the New London-Groton area, mostly for fluke. I have not done much fluke fishing but we had a blast and definitely will be doing more. Caught lots o fluke, fish on just about every drift, mostly in the 17" range (18.5" CT requirement) the biggest fish was 24" that my Dad caught. Brought home some nice sized scup (not pictured) for the table...YUMMY Next trip we will be targeting deeper water.

Out here they are called Sand Dabs. A good eating White fish. No one much fishes for them thou. Good to take young kids cause it is constant action. Two hooks with worm on them. 2 oz wt at the bottom of a flounder/crappie rig. Make good crab bait too. Looks like you all had fun. Straw hat reminds me of my old man. He had a continuing battle with skin Cancer and he would be lathered up in Sunscreen and have his long sleeve shirt, Khaki pants, and his old plantation Hat on running the Thunderbird tri hull with the 100 HP merc on the back. Down on Sandy Beach Pond on the border of RI and Conn. Beautiful Lake when the Gipsy Moths had not eating all of the leaves away
