a good friend of mine has been crushing fish on a large danny I gave him for a few weeks now. He lost a real large one 2 weeks ago at night when the fish broke the hook. Been a real good metal lip fall for him. Nothing better than catching on metal lips IMO.

Just before the sun set, in crystal clear water, I saw a dark cloud of bait moving closer to the beach I was fishing. When it got into shallow water about 25' from shore, the blues and bass attacked. I cast just beyond the chaos and hooked into a large bluefish, as i was unhooking it, the feeding frenzy continued. Next cast a striped bass hit my lure, then another large blue, it went on for a half hour or so before it got dark and it ended.

Great story.

Was on SoCo yesterday also. 260 miles of awful. A total water/surf condition change with even a little Easterly in the wind. Only consolation is that I burned just about as much gasoline as Numbskull does just going out of the Harbor.

Lower Vineyard Sound had loads of small bass, gannets, sea herring, 6-9# blues, and occasional bigger bass to 25# when I was out Saturday. Hurts that this gale will keep me away from them for several critical days. I think people will have quit fishing along RI long before the fish are gone.

2nd hand report of 8-10lb blues and small bass still in the area as of y'day morning. One beach area much better than the other areas. Bait was there but almost impossible to see with the wind. Bill and Hillary not seen. However, for you left libs I can sell you some sand that they walked on under TS's house a few days ago. $10/gram. Have pictures. Others can have it free for their cat box. PM me.
