Yes, Blues destroy gear. Yes , Blues do not taste as good as a bass. Also left unchecked Blues will wipe out fish
populations. Blues are scary ! But they fight hard and do have
similar traits as Bass.
When Bass were in decline a Blue was all that was readily available. Blues hit plugs etc...
Blues are a noble gamefish . If your baits are bit in
half (eels) try fishing with only lures.
Lyman in my opinion was a great author and fisherman.
In the 50's and 60's an 8 lb. Blue was big. Menhaden(pogies) were not very abundant .
i prefer to fish for Bass and know the subtle differences
of how to fish for each.(bass&blues). Sometimes they
overlap but life in general is not always rocket science
Rocket science involves exact facts. Fishing involves
(believe it or not) far more variables.
Please dont knock Blues. i hope we never experience
another Striper draught . Yet if we do , the Blues hopefully
will be here to make fishing interesting.
