Is Striper scared of the Bluess?

I was fishin early mornin near the rocky shore and I heard some slurpin so I rush to the area and saw them jumpin cast and got some schollies but after 5 minutes they are gone. I saw the schools of blue fish burgin on my way. Were they scared of the blue fish or they just scared the bait fish away that's why the striper is also gone.

Striper...I'm lovin it...

Or the bluefish just out competed the bass for your lure and were still there... seen that happen alot last week... had a small window to get through the blues and get a bass... the bass were there the rest of the time I guess... just couldn't hook em....

funny, always seems that the bass will precede the blues.

also, in deeper water, it's not unusual for bass to hover below the schools of blues for easy scraps.

Not just in deeper water!! from the shore , as the schools of blues drift by , the stripers are often drifting just behind them.

Sometimes as much as a few hundred yards . It's worth a shot to wait a while and fling a bucktail after the blues have passed.

or the amber eyed bastards will hold in a rip and you gotta blast a cast out waaaaayyy past the "good water" because its infested, then when you drift out 240 - 250 yds out you finally get into bass, then you do the I hope my mainline to backing knot holds dance when you hook up out in texas.

Domination takes full concentration..
