    Default 2013 Blues, Racers, Gators

    Any thoughts on when the Blues will start to show this year?
    Can't wait for them to arrive.


    A double of Gators from 2009, one on a Tony Spina Pencil, the other on a Teaser.

    We don't usually get them till beginning of May. in NY unless the water warms quickly and that doesn't look like that will happen.Forsythia just bloomed though.

    I can't wait for them to show up either. Always lots of fun. I agree with vpass timetable. surfstix we get the racers for a week or 2 and then ther gone when the bay heats up. Is that the same way it works for you? monty great pics that doubleheader has me stoked!

    Hey Monty that must of been a blast. I stop fishing teasers when the blues around. I have lost many plugs in the past. What a evil fish they are. Love them.

    There is a ton of bunker hugging the south side of the RB ready to be chopped in half by some hungry gators. I spent some time soaking freshly snagged bunker with no hits.

    If the forecast for this week holds up I think we will see some scattered reports this coming weekend.

    nice going madcaster! Just read a report they have invaded the great bay 6-15lbs. They should be here by the thousands any day now. A huge armada of toothy critters bring it!
