Greetings All!
Yo catman! A $60.00 charter at ten people sounds good, but it can't intefere with the NJ fluke opener. I may be able to talk my buddy Ed into going (especially if I'm driving!)
Yo Jamey! Ed and I will be aboard Capt Andy's Fish-N-Fun out of Margate. The progressive pool starts at $900.00. The regular pool each trip is around $60.00. Check out Captain Andy's Marina:

The fluke will be in the back bays, and its not often that a 2.5 lber can get you $900.00. The boat supplies live killies (minnows) and squid strips, but you may want to buy mackeral and use a bucktail/mackeral strip combo. (That's the ONLY tip I'm giving away!) Boats (they have two) leave at 8:00 AM, but we expect to be there at six to snag a corner seat. Its a 4 hr trip, so you'll be back in at 12:00 noon. Leave your gear onboard, buy a PM ticket, and have lunch across the street at Maynard's Pub. Back out at 1:00 PM, back in at 5:00 PM.
And if that's not enough fishing for you, the Longport jetty is a mile down the road...or you can cross the bridge and try for tog at the new pier!
