Three? Haven't caught more than one in years (although could have scored some last September at Barrington if I hadn't wasted a lot of time that afternoon twiddling with tangled line over near Westport)
Still, they clearly needed to do something. The catch has been
declining for years. I know, I know, flubies aren't that popular on this board. But I miss the days of Barrington beach combat fishing about 15 years ago (which may be returning,BTW). You could hammer 'em from shore back then on September afternoons. And it was exciting. You'd have 15 to 20 guys out there with 5 to 6 lbers thrashing away in the water while everyone had a hard fighting fish on.You'd chuck yours on the beach, and cast out for more. I know they're not as good as eating as stripers, but they sure put up a fight. Maybe they'll come back like they were and we can slam 'em again.
