Found some puffers today - the kids both placed in the tournament and were stoked - the adults stoked to eat well this weekend. Really big puffers.

AWESOME catch Brian. My question is did you find them in the clean water or in the brown water closer to the mainland? I have been out blowfishing 3 times this august from the 42 up to the BI with nothing to show for it. Last year i was boating 100+ a trip Help! my freezer is empty!!

BB, this is a thread and picture from last August. Sadly, I haven't heard of anyone having a haul like that this year.
