Marked a ton of bait out front; probably mostly herring based on the pair trawlers and gannets present, but some dark blobs that were probably mackerel on the sounder. Never dropped a jig as we were focused on Tog. Floated a chunk of pogie most of the day looking for a last Bluefish to smoke, but even with 52 deg water and all the bait, they haven't been around; usually get some beasts out there this time of year... empty smoker... :-(
Saw the usual random late November tuna sighting out there as well as one free-jumped 300yds off the stern....
