Slow pick yesterday in the surf! A couple of large blues and a nice keeper bass fell to well presented lures and baits. Blue fish find it hard to pass up a popper and bass just can’t pass up a clam. This sums up the methods used yesterday to fool a few nice fish. After…

Blue fish are still being taken along our beaches and bay areas. Keeper bass remain in the mix, it’s just hard to get passed the blues. Cut baits, swimming and popping plugs along with metals are doing the trick on these fish. Still no crabs out back, but that should change any day… John Yac
