The way bluefishing was this spring and summer boats should have been thankful guys even fished,

Hammer, I agree that we were blessed to get the customers that did come down. As we both know every Season is different. Hopefully this one is the exception. I'm not talking Blues under four pounds. You should bulk up when you know that they are Gators. Last time out I caught them on 60lb with an egg and wire leader handing them off to the kids . I prefer to lift all Bluefish as I don't eat them.
