Launched Saturday at around noon and fished till 1730ish. Suraface water temp 72 with close to 3ft of visibilty. Started off fishing the Inlet with green crab and sand fleas with only a couple small nibbles and a CNR. Moved up to the 50 bridge about the time the incoming started moving and started jigging for flounder with a bucktail/gulp combo. Landed 7 flounder with a few misses, 4 keepers, biggest at 20.5 inches. Best results came tossing the bait up on the sand bars and dragging / jigging it back into deeper water. No more than 2 boats in sight the entire afternoon.
Launched Sunday at 0530 on a high slack tide, visibility was down to about a 18 inches. Headed to the inlet again with only a 24 inch rock and a croaker to show for an hour and a half of my time. Headed back to the bridge and started jigging again, the flounder were still biting but most were shorts. Landed about a dozen around the bridge before deciding to do a little exploring. Headed up in the channel behind AI into a circus of jetski's, boaters and yaks. Made a long drift on the shore side of the channel picking up 3 shorts and having a better flounder come unbuttoned. Fish seemed to be holding a little deeper than the day before and the best bite for me was on the begining of the outgoing. Called it a day around 1230.
