Large bluefish are wreaking havoc on peanut bunker in CC Bay. All fish were between 15-18lbs, puking up peanut bunker. 15'-35' of water. Had doubles & triples often for a few consecutive hours. Before this outing, I could count the bluefish I caught this season on one hand. This was last weekend.

All topwater, strikes were ferocious!!

I don't even remember what year, but I"m guessing mid to late 80's, there was a huge peanut bunker year, inside Boston early was insane and then from Cohasset to Plymouth nonstop on massive blues. I remember getting just outside Scituate harbor one Saturday with my friend Pete and as far as you could see in any direction there were birds working. We caught gator blues until are arms couldn't take it anymore and all I can say is, that god I was pouring my own plastic because I think I went through all on board that day. Oddly you don't loose a lot of jigs to the initial strike, but if you get greedy and don't retie byby.
