Wow, you got short legs. Sure you got the right size?

 

We’ve met, you know I’m vertically challenged!

 

I know a guy with guns though lol

 

Lol to funny!!

 

Windham, you say that's my old stomping grounds.

 

Not quite that much! So you bought this bike online? How's that work? I'm suprised they let you build them yourself.

 

Yes sir. I like the north land better where I used to live, better then the south land of NH. Where you at now?

 

Providence now. Went further south. Our highest point is like 850 feet Southern NH isn't bad, close to people and also close to woods. Doesn't take long to get to either.

 

Ohhhh went south…. Never been to RI need to get there and visit tho. Any off road trails down there in RI

 

Sweet!
IMHO, One of the tastiest fish around.
Used to be heavy into "Fluckin Fluke"hunting.

Useless trivia:
Summer Flounder are right handed, ie, eyes on right side.
Winter Flounder are Left Handed, eyes on left side.

 

Bucktails,
The fluke was caught on a bucktail jig, tipped with a 5” Gulp grub.


The rod and reel are a light, jigging outfit. Perfect setup for rapid vertical jigging.

 

Me also. Some bikes that sell online, if you want the warranty, you have to bring them to a bike shop and have them 'professionally assembled'. These guys send you all the parts, pieces and tools required to put it together and set up the suspension. They set up most of the bike, the whole drive train is assembled when you get it. I just had to install the seat tube, put the handlebars on and the front tire. The rest is already assembled and adjusted. I bought the shock pump so I could make adjustments there also, but it was pretty close right out of the box. I just followed their 'fit guide' online to figure out which frame size was recommended for me. I'd say it was pretty spot on, the bike is a really good size for me.

 

Buck tails are definitely great for fluke jigging. I like to run a tsunami glass minnow teaser above the buck tail and spice both up with gulp. Sometimes I get them on the bucktail, sometimes on the teaser

 

Yup.
Used to run a teaser on a dropper about a foot and a half above the jig.
We put a squid strip and/or a live mummi on the hook as well.

Did lots of drifts to find them, Then shorten and adjust the drift once you are dialed in on them.
Old rule of thumb is you'll catch 90% of Fluke in 10% of the area.

 

Same here.

John Skinner is the king of this type of fishing.

There was. Well. There is.

That happened back to back - so, after that rumor was they put up gates and started enforcing no trespassing/etc laws back there. I haven't been since. The trails are good for a few trips or trying out new stuff but after going about 10-15 times last year, meh, there is only so many times you can do the same trails in a postage stamp

 

Shit balls. Routed my ditch lights to FedEx pickup at Walgreens. Tracking still shows them there but Walgreens doesn’t have them. Shenanigans. Messaged seller TBD.

 

Yikes, fingers crossed for ya

 

So like my wife's surgeon says, "small but mighty"?

 

No doubt! I’ve learned so much stuff from his videos
