Got another Joe story. Late 70's probably we were throwing ballerinas into the rip at mutton catching blues and bass in the 8-12lb size when a big cloud of birds made up about 1/2 mile in front of the rip. We motored over and all hooked up immediately on small bluefish. Cordeiro showed up and trolled a circle right around us jigging wire as we fought the little fish. He hooked up and dragged two #40 bass right out from under us and the bluefish. That was an eye opener for me
