Biggest Doormat So Far

Never had we caught more than 1 keeper per trip on the Happy Ours, that all changed on Saturday as we braved a small craft warning. Seth and I started out in theThoroughfare and after many wind aided drifts we hit our first fish a 17.5 inch flounder that hit as we crossed the channel. We weren't ready with the net so I just flipped it over the rail. The next two fish were caught in the East channel which was somewhat protected by the northeast wind. The 23 inch, 4.4 pound fish was pulled up while we slow trolled at during a pause in the tide. We took the bounty to Oyster Bay Tackle shop to be weighed and photographed. They featured us in their fishing report and gallery (shown below).
