Glad to hear my toothy friends are back. Its not that early anyhow it has happened before. I am surprised some environmentalcase has not started yelling GLOBAL WARMING :rotf2:.

yup ya gotta watch out fer dem environmentalers.

blues before the squid even show up? :smash:

They usually show down near South Cape beach/Cotuit first week of May, so only a few days early I guess.

Last night, Seamule and I ran into some 5 to 8 pounders on the cape. I fish this same spot the last week of April every year and have never caught a blue. At least my first fish was a little schoolie bass, so I got that out of the way. Then the blues took over. It was fun to be into good size fish that put up a fight at this time of year.

And JohnR, I'm gonna need you to send my son some more cocahoes. The blues did a little damage to the ones he got from you at the show.:grins:
