Answer
-John
 I have been fishing for fluke for over 40 years and have not seen much effect on the behavior or feeding patterns of the fish.  What the full moon does do is to create more difficult fishing conditons.  Stonger currents that require heavier sinkers and also more problems with seaweed when fishing bay and inlet areas.  If you adjust for these conditons, the fish should be just as available as they are during other stages of the moon.
