Fluke Report from Point Lookout (July 23d)

In the morning, I decided to fish Point Lookout for Fluke. My best time for fluke in Point Lookout area is between the mid-August and mid-September.  I was about 2-3 weeks too early, but someone has to post the fluke report I thought.

At the Point Lookout State Park parking lot, I found that I brought a wrong box of lures and jig heads. I picked a box with big jig heads and big lures for striper.  Though, I always carry Fish-Bites, assorted hooks and sinkers in summer.  I caught large spot for cut bait for fluke.  I made 2 three-way bottom rigs.  I put a long strip of spot on the circle hook, and also attached a golden spinner blade on the leader line.
 
I drifted in 15-17’ of water between Lake Conoy (boat ramp entrance) and the Southern-most point.  I caught about 5 bluefish @12 inches, 4 fluke at 12”, 16”, 16” and 17”, and 5 croaker at 12-17” on the three-way rig.

It was hottest day of the year, 100+ degree air temp and almost no wind.
I think keeper fluke will be there in two weeks.
