Bass blues and fluke 5/27

Another slow day on the water for us . Had My buddy Ed , and his 2 sons out this morning, wanted to try and get Austin and Edward Jr on some striped bass, but after working alot of bait pods, and the rocks without a sniff desided to switch gears and hit the sea girt reef for some fluke and see bass. Had about as perfect a drift as possible there, yet only produced one keeper fluke and a bunch of short sea bass/

Afternoon trip I had Lou, Ryan , Brian , and Carolyn out. headed north looking for all the bait pods that had been there, not seeing much bait until the rocks . baits were getting sprayed pretty hard , but it was all BIG bluefish . One of those Blues actually beat the PANTS off Brian NOT A PRETTY SIGHT [rofl]

Got a call from Capt Joe, that a very good bite had started down south . because of the lack of bait now north and with flat seas I made the long run south HOPING the bite would last, made the run really pushing it until the wind changed hard and the last 3 miles I had to really slow down on quickly building seas. Bunker schools were pushing south very quickly , the first one we got on Ryan boated a slob. but the bite had shut down with the wind, and while we worked many pods couldnt get another bite.
