Swim a live bluefish out there. That would be a hoot! You might even stand a chance in landing them if you have a big reel with plenty of line...

A guy I fish with hooked a football from the beach at Race Pt a couple of years ago in October (yes, I'm sure it was a tuna, not a seal). Pretty sick. They busted in on a bunch of blues at the traps at about 9AM in the morning, then peeled off his line quicker than you could say "filler up, Fireline, please".

I would think any Tuna over 80# and you would have no chance at landing it from the banks of the ditch. Without a boat to run and gun a fish like that would spool or break off anyone not using a chain attached to their vehicle bumper!

Agree?
