Default fish Jumping

I was fishing way out front of the ammo pier and saw a large fish jump. During the day we saw it happen twice. Both in different areas but too far to get a good description. Has anyone also seen them.

There were some large bluefish coming out of the water yesterday in that area.

Sturgeon is my bet as well... Lots of them in that general area but we usually see them more in the spring and fall.. My brother actually caught one last year.

Was on a PB a few years ago in that area. Opened the starboard cabin door to step out side and WHOA! 4 ft sturgeon came clear out of the water right in my face. Couldn't have been more then 10 feet away!
