Description
Dad and I went to our usual blowfish spot today with one chum log and a pint of slated clams. Didn't expect much considering the slow reports but figured there must be something around. Started off slow with seabass, snappers, and dogfish. The the blowfish moved in. Had about 30 in an hour. They were BIG too...upwards of 14" and 15". Kept about 15 JUMBO blowfish for the table and released the rest. They're out there!! I'm sure we would've had more if we brought more chum. Fun day!!

Total for the day:
30 blowfish
3 seabass
2 snappers
1 short fluke
2 big dogfish
