Finally! Albies show up on North Shore in #s

[mikisabicus]

I am comfortable sharing this report (courtesy of Capt. C Scali) because I know that no matter how bombastic the fishing may be, people just won't flock to the North Shore:

Last night fromm 4-sunset Albies were feeding in good numbers from Rocky Point East to Herod Point. All in tight to the beaches with little associated bird activity. You just have to motor along the beach til you see them, cut the engine, and drift with them. Private pods of albies, not a soul around, and of course the accompanying blues to make you glad you tied 25 flies earlier in the week.

Also - horsed one blue to the boat only to have it literally inhaled by an effing submarine bass that tore off line like a freight train - all the way to the bottom....only to spit out the 2lb blue....

Did someone say adrenaline... --127-3-

Had that happen a couple of years ago with someone on my boat. Hooked up a small blue on a popper and suddenly it was doing circles real fast like a bunker. He says look at that other fish chasing my bluefish. I tell him to let the blue go and the bass ate it. Landed a nice 36+" bass live lining a bluefish. You just can't make this stuff up.
