They make good shark and lobster bait. I have also chunked it for bass, blues etc. Nice bloody chunks of red meat.

They can often be difficult to catch at times but other times they chew on anything. When the bite is on, switch over to the lightest gear you have. (ultra light spin or fly) and hold on. They are a mini tuna and can really burn some drag esp some of the larger ones.
been doing that all week! so much fun!

PS
Still think your boat is the coolest in OB, walked by it a couple nights ago. :buds:

Mr. Hunters: Thanks. It's been lights out on the boat with small/medium albies but nothing huge. I had to get away from it for a couple days and do something different. Everyone is getting in on the action which is good. There seems to be a perpetual school of breaking fish east of the island...all day long.

We were in football fields of surface feeding albies that would have none of my offerings the other day. Talk about some kind of driving you crazy.... That seems to be the consensus... Average was 6lbs still amazing and on light tackle..really gets the blood flowing! I look forward to this time every year. Seems busier this year than in past on island.

Are these reachable from shore? I would love to have my son get into the action. Newport? The Cape? Where are they?

Anyone been out recently, the weather and personal stuff this past weekend kept me off the water, is the albie window still open? While I'd love another shot, after the frustrating skunk two weeks back, I'm wondering if I wouldn't be better to grab some crabs and anchor up and relax. If they are still hanging around Cutty, I could do both or at least give the albies one more shot before making the switch.
