Bluefish on the Flats | Cape Cod, MA | S20 E06 

"Never doubted you for a minute, Jimmy!" Love the banter

This gets us so excited for the Spring! Thanks.

Thanks for the inspiration gentleman, can't wait for spring 🎣

That was a fun video to watch! Need this Noreaster on the way out of here!

Chesapeake striper chaser here 🦀 Great videos 👍 Getting me thru to opening day

You guys should do more surfcasting content. Also, when is the first striper migration map coming??? Can’t wait

We are in a bluefish drought here in Raritan Bay NY. The last 5 Spring runs have been lackluster. Very few lean and hungry Spring busters. Even the summer/ fall snapper run was terrible. Glad they are healthy elsewhere at least.

Jimmy, Chris was suppose to lure the fish to your fly yet it was the opposite you were luring the alligators to Chris, great video as always thank you, Peace.

Bluefish are too often unnecessarily maligned - I've fished that same area for years, and it's always exciting when one of those mean bastards hits, especially on a fly rod-pound for pound among the toughest I've caught, including albies, bonefish, and tarpon. Cool video!

The blues last season were unbelievable up the cape and along Nantucket. Solid episode gentlemen 👏🏾

You guys should've brought John skinner he's an expert

well said in the intro. blues are aggressive, mysterious fish. i caught a monster last year off of cape ann in a hell of a northeast wind. 12-15+ lbs, definitely my pb of that particular species. i mention it because that was the only bluefish i have seen in years and i fish 2-3 hours a day [albiet a lot further north than cape cod.] just a mean, enigmatic fish. i was thigh deep in my shorts and did not want him swimming that close to my junk. hooked a giant bass in that same storm and the blue pulled harder. they're so violent that they foul themselves and end up wearing your plug like a harness high on their heads and shoulders. pulled harder than a 30# bass and that is no exaggeration. when i was young they would come and go. i would see them working on the essex river and they would bite small stripers and bunker in half. you could catch them on chunked bait. now they are rare in ipswich, essex, gloucester, southern nh and the merrimack. i've never understood why there are no regulations regarding their size. they're not a great eating fish. i think the attitude is there in part because they kill and eat small stripers.

Great Stuff! Is it May yet!!?

I love topwater fishing for blues but I got the biggest 1s using chunk bait on the bottom at the race.

"Smoke-o-Ono'd It" ~ can you provide the origin of this term? Lol. Can this be on the next OTW T-shirt drop?

You guys need to go see Capt Fred Tonkin out of Straight Wharf, Nantucket

Bring back the original intro music.

Did i miss where he showed the fly? Plenty on tying the leader, but I caught nothing on the fly.

Can you give the recipe for that Smoked Bluefish Dip? It looked awesome.

Small fish, good eating size.

Just wondering, why you guys don’t use a net?

What were the fly set-ups?

I don't like how he kept the blue around just to keep the school blitzing.the fish was over tired and left with a hook in it

Dude needs a fly casting lesson and to go out with a guide. Will accelerate his learning curve like crazy.

10-2 Jimbo

Which harbor did you head out of?

Fabulous...take me out to the FLATS. Whatever the price$ Reply?

They call it daisy chaining huh? Lol think you just came up with that these guys are goofy

Use a line basket… sooooooo much easier and simpler ANYWHERE ! And a faster retrieve with a double hand, rod under the arm, technique.

Need a moratorium on these things we didn’t know we had em so good til they were gone cmon 15 fish no size limit in jersey a year ago there needs a zero take or slot or something haven’t seen a bluefish consistent over 10lbs inshore in way too long
