Went 4 for 5 on the Albies in Buzzard's bay today. They were everywhere, but would stay up for only one or two casts. Today's best lures were 3/4 oz silver crippled herring, and 1/2 oz green abalone braid jig. The 5th one chased after the crippled herring and cut me off as I was reeling in. Also was not using any swivels. I was using 10lb flourocarbon attached to 15 lb red cajun line. Tied on all my lures with palomar knots. My buddy had 2 but 1 bent the treble out and the other one got the line wrapped in the prop. I can't believe the power and speed of these guys. I seriously need a boat now. They all looked to be 10-12 lbs.
