Well, if you're looking for some overly exciting fishing for a Friday evening, blue fishing is where its at. We had another banner trip aboard the Lady Sea catching fast and fat bluefish.
Again, we started out at the groaner with a bucket of finely cut chum and some fresh herring cut up for chunk bait. Our first drift lasted approximately two hours, with what I have figured out to be a one fish every seven minute average. Which considering our crew of eight kids under the age of sixteen, and the rest adults, is unbelievable.
This has been by far the best blue fishing that we have seen off of Gloucester in years, and as of right now it seems to show no signs of slowing down. But be warned: this could change at the drop of a dime. Considering that Bluefish travel very fast, and are capable of going very far in short spans of time, you should be booking on these trips asap.
Give us a call and book a trip, we limit these trips to twenty five anglers in order to keep the rail space manageable and comfortable. Right now we are averaging about three to five feet of space per angler, and that's the way we shall keep it. There won't be many more of the trips, a number that is obviously directly related to the presence of fish. The bluefish will hopefully be around right through September, but there is just no way to predict what will happen.
Get on board for a trip. Get a rod. Get some bait. And get hooked up.
Fair winds and fine sailing,
Captain Michael Mann, and the crew of the Lady Sea
