Stripers or Blues

[Patrick]

Down,

Where are you hooking these mackeral? Bluefish are tail biters. They run up, disable the fish. Stripers are side bashers. They swim up along side it and turn their head and swallow it and crush the whole fish in their throats. Placing hooks in certain places will increase hook ups. For stripers, I hook the fish through the nose or the eye sockets. For bluefish, I hook them right behind the dorsal. I don't know why you want to catch bluefish though
