Definately noticed a drop in numbers the last 2 seasons in SoCo. Still plenty of ten to fifteen pound blues staying inside LI sound for the CT guys, but they seem to be almost scarce at times in RI. I am currently re-reading The Fisherman's Ocean. Last night I was reading a seciton on cycles in abundance which specifically references bluefish and how they, out of nowhere, drop off in numbers. I was then confronted by one of the attorneys in my office about the fact that he hasn't seen any bluefish yet this year. They seem to be on the mind of everyone.
