fatcat with a gator.
Nice going rip plugger. The bigger blues seem to be missing from our jersey shores now. How big are the ones you are getting and what are they feeding on?
Thanks Buckethead.
they are feeding on bunkers and atlantics now,they seem to be very nomadic as they are here then they are 4 miles away then they show up 2 days later.i hit them just perfect and was in the right spots.
they are running from 7-12 lbs with a few up to 15 pounds once in a few.

believe it or not,I got the plug out and the fish swam away fast/strong.
the center hooks treble had only one of it's 3 in the back of the roof of it's mouth,the single 5/0 tail hook was through the throat tissue where it looks like an accordion.
I took my very long nosed pliers and it all worked out which was a good thing,I didn't want to kill the fish,hope it made out ok.

I have to say some of those bluefish are impressive. It looks like you are catching them in the day too? Could I ask if it's a dawn/dusk thing or do you catch them at other times? In Jersey whenever we get a bluefish bite it never seems to last that long maybe 30 minutes to an hour. Awesome fish thanks for sharing.
well,around here in the rivers at least they seem to be triggered to the bite by the transition from dark to light.
this action day started at around 6:15 am,then it opened up a bit later when it got lighter out,it was a very overcast day that day.
it was a good am that day,the next morning I only got 1 fish and had several smashes.

Nice "catching" RP. Send some of them down our way.
