Worked Monomoy with Strippinline by boat on Saturday. The rips were really moving, and once the fog burned off and tide turned, it was feeding frenzie - birds and fish everywhere! Right upto and around the boat in 6' water. Fun to fish, but a little difficult with the strong currents and close proximity of boats around us.
Al had hooked something really big at one point, but snapped his line (25#) right after setting the hook. Al was using a steel leader, so it wasn't a blue sinking his teeth into the line. Wonder what that was?
For the day, we only managed 2 keepers 28", 34", couple of schoolies, 1/2 dozen large blues and a bunch of rat blues.
Good to be fishing and OTW, wish it were as good as the previous week.
