I watched them doing the same thing on the Sakonnet the other day....just cruising near the surface under me...only breaking/rolling occasionally, I thought they were feeding but couldn't see anything that they might be feeding on, I managed a few on flies but had to put it right where one rolled and only got follows most of the time, never seen bluefish so picky...probably nervous because the bass are all gone and figure they're next

scottw- I've been seeing alot of very small crabs in some of the areas I've been fishing. They maybe feeding on the crab hatch. These things are small- alittle less than the diameter of a pencil. Good luck.

But back to the killing part,yeah I knew a few humans that would kill fish and would give/try (sorry trying to under score "try") to friends and family.and when it wasn't givin away off to the trash barrel it went.
it's tough to see this happen,and God forbid,when you say/mention that what their doing is not conventional I'd get t he speech "who are you Captain Planet"?.
Really?!?!
No,Actually I'm someone who gives a chit and your a donkey for killing small fish which you think are trophies,ass munch!

I hate to C people gaffing bluefish...there is nothing to be afraid of by grabbing them and releasing them....oops! only one exception for me is when putting them in the smoker...

I think you guys were exactly right about the crab hatch...I was at the shore with my kids this weekend and they were noticing tons of the tiniest size crabs everywhere
