The past four trips we've been having a lot of fun with bluefish. They'e really moved onto the corners of Block Island. Our customers are having a blast fishing with light gear. I love bluefish. I came of age with bluefish in the 1980s---tons of people did back then. Something about their yellow eyes and the smell of them when they come clean from the ocean, an almost citrus smell. Any way, come out with us. These fish most definitely have tails and can leave our waters in a hurry.

This has been a good week. The fish have come fairly easy. We've been getting the bass and blues both trolling and drift fishing with jigs and soft plastics. People love it. There has been fog and some mist but that is fine. It's the catching of fish and the beauty of the sea that people care about and remember. Bottom fishing has been more of a challenge. The big sea bass and fluke just are settled in yet in my area. But that will come.

Had five guys from upstate New York. The wanted bass and blues on light tackle, casting and jigging. Well we found some fish that were willing. For a good amount of the falling tide we had many fish. Everyone caught. I would call it a blitz. One fish after another. Gulls were feeding, fish were feeding and we all had a great time.
