we saw one last year a few miles out from RI. Tried to bait him but he wouldn't crash our bait.

You never know.

During the 90's heyday of bluefishing the humps south of Newport the regulars would routinely hook something and never stop them.

We took a small Mako on those grounds in 1994 or so. Probably 5.5ft or so on Bluefish gear.

That might have been the same time frame that Marc Ducharme was targeting sharks and had a 200 lb (Thresher?) from the Block surf. He hooked others that didn't stop. I think the Projo ran an article about it.

This may be the year that..... we have many more human seals swimming around now.
