Long Island Fluke Fishing: Weekend Morning Magic

Ready for some early morning fluke action on Long Island? We've got just the trip for you. Carolann P Fishing Charters is offering a 4-hour private fluke fishing adventure that'll have you hooked. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just starting out, our captain knows all the sweet spots where the fluke are biting. It's a weekend-only deal, perfect for those looking to escape the grind and reel in some memories. We've got your fishing license covered, and there's room for up to 6 of your buddies. Let's dive into what makes this trip a must-do for any fluke enthusiast.

Trip Overview

Picture this: You're out on the water as the sun's just peeking over the horizon, the air's crisp, and Long Island's coastline is waking up. That's the start of your 4-hour fluke fishing adventure with us. We're talking prime time for fluke, folks. These flatfish are most active in the early hours, so we're hitting the water when the bite is hot. Our captain's been doing this for years, so you're in good hands. They'll take you straight to where the fluke are hiding, whether that's near sandy bottoms or around structure. And don't worry if you're new to this – we'll show you the ropes, from baiting your hook to landing that keeper. Just remember, it's cash only before we leave the dock, so come prepared.

Fluke Fishing 101

Alright, let's talk technique. Fluke fishing is all about finesse and patience. We'll be doing some bottom fishing, which means your bait will be bouncing along the seafloor where these flatfish like to hang out. We typically use bucktails tipped with squid or spearing – fluke can't resist 'em. You'll learn the art of the slow retrieve, giving your bait just enough action to look like an easy meal. Our gear is top-notch, designed to feel even the slightest nibble. And when a fluke hits, it's game on! These fish can put up a surprisingly good fight for their size. The key is a steady hand and not rushing the reel. Trust me, there's nothing quite like the feeling of landing your first fluke of the day.

What to Expect on the Water

Our 4-hour trip is the perfect slice of fishing heaven. We'll cruise out to some of Long Island's best fluke spots, areas that have been producing consistently good catches. The beauty of fluke fishing is that it's accessible – you don't need to be a pro to have a good time. Our captain will be right there, offering tips and tricks to increase your chances of landing the big one. And let's not forget the views – Long Island's coastline is something special in the early morning light. Keep your eyes peeled for other marine life too; we often spot seals, dolphins, and all sorts of seabirds. It's not just about the fish – it's the whole experience that makes this trip a customer favorite.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Summer flounder, better known as fluke, are the stars of this show. These flatfish are masters of camouflage, blending in perfectly with the sandy bottom. But don't let their flat appearance fool you – fluke can grow to impressive sizes, with some real doormat specimens out there. The average catch might be around 2-3 pounds, but it's not uncommon to hook into a 5-pounder or bigger. Fluke are known for their delicious, mild-flavored white meat, making them a prized catch for the dinner table. They're most abundant in our waters from late spring through early fall, with summer being the peak season. What makes fluke so exciting to catch is their aggressive bite and the challenge of detecting their subtle takes. When you feel that telltale thump on your line, get ready for a fight – these fish can really pull!

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's something special about fluke fishing that keeps folks coming back for more. Maybe it's the thrill of feeling that distinctive bite. Or the satisfaction of outsmarting a fish that's practically invisible on the bottom. Whatever it is, our weekend morning trips have become a bit of a tradition for many local anglers. It's not just about the fish, though. It's about those quiet moments as the sun rises, the camaraderie with your fishing buddies, and the stories you'll tell later. Plus, with our experienced captain at the helm, you're always in for a good time, whether the fish are biting or not. And let's be honest – there's nothing quite like coming home with a cooler full of fresh fluke for the grill.

Learn more about the species

Summer Flounder

Summer flounder, or fluke, are masters of camouflage. These flatfish blend right into the sandy bottom, with both eyes on their left side. They're ambush predators, lying in wait for smaller fish and crustaceans. Most fluke we catch run 15-20 inches, but the big ones can hit 26 pounds. They're plentiful in our waters from spring through fall, especially in estuaries and along the coast. Anglers love targeting fluke for their fight and fantastic table fare. The best action is usually September to November when they're fattening up before winter. To up your odds, try drifting with live bait like minnows or mullet. Here's a local trick: use a bucktail jig tipped with a strip of squid or fish belly - fluke can't resist that combo. Whether you're after a doormat or just want steady action, fluke fishing is a blast for all skill levels.
