Sunday was pretty awesome. They showed up in large numbers and weren’t very picky til the sun got high and bright then it shut off like a faucet. 0-4 with only one loss due to operator error. Found them early and were on a few pods before the cavalry showed up but all the boats around us worked well together for once. Didn’t have to run and gun just sit and let them pop up

I can't even fathom that, not even sure I'd enjoy that if they didn't break each other off first...:confused:

it's been interesting chasing them this year...found them yesterday in glassy water lazily surface feeding on peanuts...they were spread out in small pods occasionally pushing bait to the surface..could have just sat there and watched them...when I've seen them while running around it's been typically just a quick roll and maybe a single fish leaping from the water, just enough time to get a cast in... then gone...hope the storms stay away for a while

great pic! nice fish!

On the way in in between blows came across a huge blowup, 4 casts produced 3 missed strikes and one bigy.....

Lobster bait?

great green crab bait

All of the above... :-)

That too.... It's time to start stockpiling them

Still batting zero in the Albie department not form a lack of trying

We ate one a few years ago, it’s not bad.

I dunno Pete.... acquired taste for sure.
Last few years I've tried it a few different ways...

Pan-seared steaks...:hs:
Broiled/Baked in the oven w/crumbs...:rollem:
Grilled steaks....:huh:
Even deep-fried....:yak5:

My 80 yr. old dad insists he likes it.... but he's like "Mikey", he eats everything & anything, his generation was built on never refusing a meal as they were hard to come by...me, not so much...

Fried in butter and olive oil with onions peppers and garlic
It ain’t a whitefish

Whitefish lives Matter!!!


One of my elders suggested baking it in the oven and then storing it in a jar filled with olive oil and garlic. Refrigerate and eat like cold tuna??

I think Roberto Duran said it best..... "No Mas"

I like the “cat’s won’t eat it “ phrase....
I cut a steak out of one once, put in frig overnight, then Came to my senses, stuck it in a bait bag for The pots... LOL

Well...
If they tasted like cod, there’d be none left.
It’s a good thing they taste like ass.

we were talking about this the other day...I like that they are elusive...I like that they move fast...I like that they are often picky...I like that they are a challenge....I like that they are perceived to not taste good(keep hearing mixed reviews)....if not they would just get slaughtered with the way they are pursued

Slow going out there yesterday. A few chances in one sheltered spot but too many boats on one small school ruined it. BB was wild (sustained 28 kts) on the ride home.

Funny Water Temp:
 

Curious how you FF Chasers think water temps affect your FF fishing.
This morning on the ride home, water temp S. side Ch was 65.0 degrees. Tarpaulin Cove, water temp 67.1.

Incidentally, that is 3 to 5 degrees cooler than 4 days ago before these NE fronts.

There’s an echo in here! :-)

Wayne with a monster, he couldn’t get it to the boat we figured foul hooked,,, not

Plenty of fish still around but tough conditions today. Got several but can’t attach photos. The attach file box doesn’t seem to do anything. Anyone know what’s that about?
