23.75lbs. Old Man Shoal Spetember new moon 1981 with Bobby Perimian on his "Foolish Pleasure" 32 Fortier. Wire with a Gibbs GTS-3 Blue Mackerel Swimmer.

October 1983 (the same night the Marines in Lebanon got hit. Dave Kosweski, myself, Pete Trainor and Steve Brito. Race Point, Loaded 7 inch Redfins, 16lb Ande Tournament Green line on spinning wrapped Lami GLB-108-1Ms'. I had 5 between 17 and 19 pounds, Pete had 7 over 17 to 20 pounds and Steve had a similar number, Prize went to Ski who hauled in a 22 pounder. If we had known enough to have it entered into the IGFA for a record he would still hold the record for 16lb test Bluefish. All surf caught all on loaded Redfins.

Biggest Bluefish I ever saw was one night in 74' when working for Capt. Lucky Singleton on the Sea-Witch, mate from the Piranha, tied up next to us, woke me up in the wee hours to see it. It was caught on a night trip off of the path in Truro in CC Bay. 25.8oz. It was a monster.
