Those big bruiser blues were busting outside of Marblehead to Cat Island for hours this morning. Had to be almost forty boats on them. Fun, but certainly signals the end of the mackerel locally. All the normal haunts were void today , and yesterday for the most part. If you get on them, you better load up on them and fill the freezer. Best to have a lot of ice to mix with salt water to keep them in the best shape.

I even was out as far as 5 miles beyond Halfway Rock looking for them today. Nada. But did see and mark a good number of tuna in close.
