Keyport seahawk - fluke and bluefish

[Chrisper4694]

started where we left off last weekend but the wind just wouldn't cooperate. We did what we could and managed 2 keepers on bucktails, one nuclear chicken and one pink. Not many shorts but we each dropped what felt like bruiser fluke coming up...very frustrating, they just weren't biting great in the area we were.

We desired to check out the cocktail bluefish action and it was red hot! They were everywhere demolishing the shad schools. We had a blast ripping them in by burning small lures over the top. They'd come in the boat and barf baby shad all over the place. They would fly right out of the water chasing the lure down and was awesome on light tackle. We kept a few for a batch of delicious bluefish crab cakes.
