I hooked up with a fish last night in Narragansett. I got all excited with the ammount of drag being taken. I land it and bend over to unhook it to find a 10 lb blue shaking its head at me instead of the decent bass I expected

First saccrificial
slug-go of the season. (The short version is yes the blues are here)
Good news was that he coughed up a 9" bunker, so they're arround also
