Fluke
Hyannis Port is a prime location for Fluke, also known as Summer Flounder, offering access to the productive waters of Nantucket Sound. These flatfish are abundant during the warmer months, typically from late spring through early fall. The key to success when Fluke fishing here is to focus on areas with sandy or gravelly bottoms, particularly near channels and drop-offs. Drifting with bucktails or fluke rigs tipped with squid or sand eels is a popular and effective method. Pay close attention to your drift speed, as Fluke prefer a slow presentation. A local tip is to try fishing the shoals and rips just outside of Hyannis Harbor, as these areas often hold large concentrations of Fluke. Keep an eye on water clarity; Fluke prefer clearer water. The Fluke in this region are known for their impressive size, with many anglers landing fish exceeding five pounds.
