- May 4, 2024 is not just Stars Wars Day, it's also the happiest day of the year for many New Yorkers that have been dealing with cold weather for the better part of 6 months. Yes, May 4th represents the opening of the fluke season in NY!
On this day, John Skinner was gracious enough to take me out (again) while my new boat awaits some final work at the boatyard.
And while by no means a banner day, it certainly was an optimistic one as we totaled 11 shorts and only 1 sea robin! As the water warms and more bait gets pushed in, things should only improve!

Great season opener video.Another winter in the rear view mirror. Time's flying.
Nicely done John and John...great little minimalist tackle set-up.
Ah my guys again, I hope to see you again Johnny boy miss you. 🎣🎣🎣
It's about time you went out on Skinners boat
Any day on the water catching Fluke is a good day John! 👍👍
100 percent agree!!!
Nice to see you and Skinner back together.
I’m a firm believer live bait this time of year will outperform the gulp. Looking forward to a good season ahead!
Long time no see... Gotta catch up on the winter vids. Cant wait to see the fluke vids this summer. Im going to Nantucket shoals the 27th from cape may. Cheers my friend
Amazing and best of luck!
Thank you for the video cameo appearance :). Both of you guys are very helpful. We had the same expectations for opening day, having two keepers was frankly a big bonus and very exciting to see. We had no sea robins when last year that was all we caught opening day.
A celebration of the new Fluking season! It was great to see you guys yesterday. The Year of the Fluuuuuuuke! 🐟
Thank you for the video. It's nice to go fishing with you guys!!
Good to see fluke so early in the year. Nice Video!!!
Csnt wait to see you on your new boat John.
Well skinner is the fish whisperer lol
Put my boat in today! Was out for a half day.
4 fish, all short, biggest was 18".
Hoping for a great May in the Bay!
Fish were between 20 and 30 ft, water was 54 degrees
I would rather catch shorts than nothing at all. Retirement is treating you well. Looking forward to the Maiden Voyage on your new boat. Wondering who will be on the boat for the first time???? Great video as always.
Thanks Dave! Likely just me since boat only has an hour on it and I really need to get the first 8 hours in at various RPMs. Don’t want to bore any of my friends with that
@@jiggingjerks Great point. That would be a fantastic video for new boaters to understand breaking in the engines.
Hoping to see your new boat in your next video! Tight lines John
awesome video!!! Why do they change the regulations again if they are still everywhere?
It’s a flawed science.
When are we seeing your new boat in action?
Hopefully soon. I have a vid coming out later today going over some of the stuff on the boat but she's not in water yet unfortunately
Are you doing trips again if so let me know.
I am. Just reach out with a date you'd like
I had a keeper same area
Were you fishing with Kevin? Sounded like you guys were having a blast!
@@jiggingjerks Nooo Nancy Ann
@@RobertCooley-bg9xk ahhhhh yes! Saw you guys right before we called it. Only fished til 11. Glad you got one! A nice achievement yesterday with all the shorts around
Billys tournament June 1 !
I heard!
Size limit is so high . Can't keep any fish. Open water is the only place to catch keepers.
19 til August 1st. Then 19 and a half rest of season
