Hi Everyone,
I had the pleasure of working an early morning tide today with Ken Zwiko, AKA Cowhunter and he's given me permission to reveal one of his secret spots; as you'll see from the picture attached, there are no boats visible because nobody's ever heard of this place. Cowhunter’s code name for the spot is "The Race."
After working a new moon tide, I think I know why he calls it The Race.
Every drop of the bait resulted in a hook up. Most were big blues with nice sharp teeth...lots of rig tying and rebaiting...lots of tap, tap, tap followed by vicious runs and rod pumping action. The bluefish would take advantage of the current to the point where I heard Ken grunt once or twice. Big blues do pull hard.
I know it’s a pain in the butt when you’re trying to get down to the big cows and the choppers are everywhere, but I’ll bet if we weren’t targeting trophy bass and we switched from fluorocarbon to wire we would have caught some monster blues. Last week blues up to 17 pounds were mixed in with bass up to 40.
A place like this could catch on, so let’s keep it our little secret. The action for big cows should pick up any day now.
Mike
