    Roddy, I would trade all the bass I caught in Sept and till now, just for some nice gators like that....

    We had them from about the first to last week of Sept.....and it was incredible,.....challenging as they would not touch ML swimmers and focused on small bait...the best action was when they hammered the mullet and were a little less picky......

    Folks shake their heads when they hear me saying this, but I would rather catch those bluefish, every day, than the scattered bass we have down here right now..........

    Looks like you are having a blast......
    thanks for sharing the pics with the members here.....

    well DS,I'll tell you,they have been funny here too.following the lure and not hitting or boil after the plug and not hit.
    then you can see them around clearly and they act as if you were not there at all.
    even this spring,bicycle George was telling me that the fish would follow the pencil and not hit.you stop it and they would circle it then you move it and they follow it again,thats just crazy.
    I dunno,just keep slinging I guess.

    I'm with you Dark. I would like some good Size blues over these little Bass. I haven't caught or seen a Gator size blues in 2 yrs.

    Roddy, Your plugs are Awesome. Love your Pictures. They make me nuts.

    Yeah really love those bluefish pictures ripplugger. We had some big ones around april into may in the river and back bay but they left too soon. they are a lot of fun though they do really destroy your tackle.
