Left the dock at 6:30 and headed to Sharps Island area looking for bluefish with Capt John. Finally got Mako Mike out on John's boat
Mike bought a spreader bar from John and hasn't caught a damn thing on it; so today we put 27 nice blues in the box and a surprise Spanish Mackerel while using just spreader bars
The fish were a bit skittish and often the birds and breaking fish were moving on by the time we arrived. Many of the blues were spitting up small bay anchovies (silversides). I suspect that if we had downsized or baits, we may have had more hookups.
We released a fair number of 17-19 inch rock that will be legal next year
After two days of fishing, sleeping in tomorrow !!!
