5-28 Today the bluefish bite has seen to gotten a little bit hotter. I, myself went out fishing last night after work and caught a 36 inch, 11.68 lb blue and a 28' bass (Released). This morning and up till an hour ago (12;45 pm) I have weighed people in with stripers up to 36 inches and blues in the 9-11 lb range. Bunker and Salted Clam seems to be doing the trick. The bigger fish seem to be hitting at dark and more or so close to low tide. As for fluke, since Friday we have seen 3 weigh in. Caught on bunker as well as 1 being caught on pink gulp. Keep those lines tight if fishing as the hit is fast and hard. Be safe and hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend. `Jerry
