Great fishing in bay

[7milebridge]

if no one has been apart of the amazing fishing these past few days from the coast they need to get out there even if just for a half hour. Last night was pretty amazing to go out for an hour and play with some great sized bluefish, and schoolies.

Agreed, I was able to get out yesterday afternoon for a couple of hours and we hit some huge bluefish boils. Forgot to bring some wire for the fly line so I ended up losing a few fish as they chewed through the mono. Can anyone give me a hint of what else I can use (product or tactic) to prevent this.

Going back out tomorow.

cumberlandflyguy- Considering I lost a blue when it chewed through some 27# wire I don't think anything other than wire will even stand a chance with the big blues. Ron

Thanks, I figured as much but might as well ask. My fishing buddy had a blue chomp the hook off his plug. At least I got good practice in retying a fly quickly.

Hooked up with a massive blue the other night. Bit right through my steel leader. I couldn't believe it.

Caught a 13lber and a 10. Great fights

Same here, tons of blues but no stripers!!!!!! Sick of the blues..........where are the srtripers??? When can we expect the fall run to start, and when can we expect it to be over? Need to arrage things to fish as much as I can during that period before it's over, but don't want to be out there as much until it starts because I am tired of just blues.

Yes the blues are in heavy and huge schools and some monsters mixed in
took 2 fresh water guys out and the each caught 20 fish each back by noon the bay is still really warm 67-68 degree's this might go on untill november

I nearly got in a head collision coming over the newport bridge today - freaking unbelievable blitz down below.

i know the bass are coming soon cause the schoolies were out in force last night; however, nobody could ever tell me that catch blues is not one of the most enjoyable things.

It is fun to catch the blues for awhile, but always looking for that huge bass, and so many blues, you catch nothing but them, it gets to be, "Ok, enough!"
Speaking of the 2 freshwater guys........my nephew was down from Canada Labor Day week, and he caught a few blues............nothing really big even, and he was shocked over the fight he got. I wish he got into a 10 pounder or better.........then he would really see something.
