Signs of fall fishing - Fluke: Two-minute warning
On this week's video fishing forecast, managing editor Matt Broderick talks about tagging fish up to 49 inches with Gray Fish Tags. He also gives us a quick surf report with a special guest this week. Last week Hurricane Larry passed us by, making it challenging for some boats to leave the inlet due to swells. This week's contributors also give us their best reports and insights as to where to fish this upcoming weekend. Also, remember to get those last drifts in for fluke soon, as the season-ender is approaching.

West End Fishing Reports
Geoff Lawrence-West End Highlights
September 20, 2021 - 09:32:35
Fluking is on the rebound; especially in the bay and inlet. Some anglers are limiting out and doormats to 12-pounds have been captured. The flatties have been duped on live-lined peanut bunker and spearing/squid combos. Local bridges saw a resurgence of weakfish that fell to sandworms on a 3x3, bucktails with squid and live lined bunker. Bass are getting active in the State Channel on popping plugs and bunker. To the west the tuna bite in the Rockaways and Ambrose Channel remains productive. Porgy action there is also very good. Fluke anglers found action on 3 to 4-pounders at Nortons Point and Ambrose Channel.
