Pound for pound, one of the best fighters out there, but unfortunately they don't reach the size of Bass. Everyone dreams of the Striper of a lifetime because they've seen pictures of 60+lb fish and know its a remote possibility. Not many people dream of the elusive 20lb bluefish and go out to catch it. I once caught an 18lb Blue while trolling, and I thought I had hooked a football tuna. Most tiring fish I ever reeled in, partly due to the amount of line I had out, but also because of the fight. I don't like to catch them, but they are very good eating if you take care of them by bleeding and icing them right out of the water.
