2002 Sept - Provincetown, Ma

Esther with her first bluefish

Frank with one of the bluefish he caught
On our vacation in P-town we spent pretty much every day surfcasting for bluefish or stripers. On several occasions, we could see the bluefish just far enough off shore out of our reach. We could see where the fish were by the seagulls flying over the water to pick up the bits of baitfish left behind by the vicious bluefish. 
But we did get lucky on one of our last days when a bluefish blitz came in very close to shore.  We cast as fast as we could and found ourselves running down the beach so we could keep casting into the school of fish.  I only landed one, but Frank caught a couple and a striper as well.  At one point, Frank landed a bluefish and when he turned around he had an audience clapping for him!
