Bluefin continue to chew!

Man what a December we’ve had!! Been tough to make daily reports when it seems like everyday is the same thing, “The bluefin are going nuts, chewing like we’ve never seen before!” LOL Also in a lot of the same areas we’ve been preaching about all season, right now the biggest tool we are using is the SST shots to locate that 50-53 degree water, they can be in colder water but we’ve had the best results in that 50-53 degree water! Which at the moment is hovering right around the 20 fathom line, from Jackspot all the way north to Masseys and every piece of structure or lump in between! Guys are getting bites on plastics/worms as well as ballyhoo, even a few guys hooking up casting and jigging! Curious to see how long the bluefin madness continues, I think it will depend on the weather and how cold it gets. We slo have the big migratory bass moving through out front, they are always fun to catch and release on light tackle, technically you should try and stay inside 3 miles to target striper specifically, and they have been in close enough to stay inside 3 miles, but a lot of boats are seeing them on their way home from bluefin fishing, anywhere from 2-3 miles off the beach to as far as 7-10 miles out, they are passing through making their way to the Chesapeake! Remember if you do target striper to handle them with care and get them back in the water quickly, and don’t hold them or hang them by their jaw! Cradle those big 40-50” 40-50 pound bass like a big baby!! hahaha Good luck and tight lines y’all!!!
