Not the greatest of nights. Met up with Caster(BIL Richie) and Jigamafish(Joe). We got our bait in GK. They were in 35 feet of water. We snagged what we needed and headed out.
A ton of boats outside of GK so we went searching. Came up on some marks and dropped the hooked. BIL Richie was on in 5 minutes and landed his first keeper of the year on a bunker head/circle hook. 15 minutes later, I hooked up on a bunker chunk/circle hook combo to land my first keeper from the raritan bay. Then a bluefish invasion. All the 9 to 10 pounds blues you wanted. We had around 3-4 reel nice run offs but no fish from those run offs.
Who ever says that bluefish don't hit bunker heads and they don't bite at night ... obviously doesn't use bunker heads at night ....
Great to get out. Beautiful night for April. Things should improve in a week or so. This is just the start.
ps -- I'll be at Foodtown by the front door with a can collecting for gas money. :eek:
Good fishing with you guys. Joe, thanks for the "smack" sandwiches. Richie -- thanks for NOT sharing your sandwiches. :p
almost forgot 1 thing ... don't leave clams on your boat. OOOOFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
