Westport to sakonnet point

When out this am for a quick look around , just plain nasty the SE wind was like a washer machine nothing at sakonnet point of merit did find some bluefish they seem to be everywhere.. shockingly I did see a sea Turtle in those conditions I was just turning and saw this big brown spot of my beam. Thought it was a one of those lion mane jellyfish till I got a better look. 1st time I've seen one very cool
Also saw no bait leaving the Westport river or along the beach

Used to be. They don't live here anymore. Fish traps are as bad as draggers
