RE:b-bouy

That oil rig looking thing is just that... They bought an old oil rig platform from Brazil (I think it was Brazil) to support the ventilation and completion of the Deer Island waste treatment plant outflow. Remember those two guys that died of asphixiation last year on the Deer Island project? They had an air supply problem and were unable to be retrieved. This platform is being used to ventilate the entire system, something like 9 miles long. There is a fanned conduit going from the platform to the tunnel to suck the air out...

Targeting bluefish out there?? Pick up some mackerel and drift/sink to various depths. If you are lucky, there may still be some schools of live macs out there that you can get with a mackerel rig and keep live or freeze fresh... You probably don't want to anchor out there, its around 100+ feet and shoals up to 70-80 around the rig...
