7/30/05 5Hr Trip with Gary Karner and his three sons from Maryland on board this morning. The weather was yuck at 6:30 so we worked the internal waters for an hour and managed 7 flounder with the largest at 3.5lbs. By 7:30 the weather cleared and we moved out along the beach to work some live bottoms and AR's. There was a good spanish bite so we pulled a few baits and brought 4 2+lb spanish up and then worked flounder for almost 2 hours to land over 20 more flatties. Wound up keeping 21 flounder with 8 fish over 2lbs today. Back at the dock at 11:30. Super job guys! CAPT. JEFF CRONK- FISH'N4LIFE CHARTERS 910-326-7512
