Headed out a little late and got some bait. Headed over to where the reports were coming from in hopes of some stripers. They seemed to only want whole live bunker, wouldn't touch the chunks. Seemed to only get a shot at one every 45 minutes or so. The first hook up made it to the boat, a nice 36 incher that John and Maddy tag teamed father/daughter style. The next one got within a few feet of the net before it popped free. after that a few good bump/takes with no hookups...
We changed gears and decided to go have some fun with the blues. The action was pretty non-stop on weighted down chunks of our left over bunker, most fish 30-33 inches with one huge 38" blue. Maddy had plenty of practice fighting blues and netting fish; she had a blast!
After that we were going to head home but decided to do just one drift for fluke and ended up nabbing the first fluke for us for the year at 15" haha.
