I've seen bluefish chunked off the beach as late as Dec 7th a few years back... late fall fishing all boils down to one thing... herring....
Great memories Bryan. You are spot on with the herring. Bluebacks.

Remember BI the day after Thanksgiving with Spence. Still one of the funniest episodes ever. 40knots winds 35 degrees and a few fish to boot. Blueback were there on the SW Point.

No boat, back in the suds.

I remember that, RIROCKHOUND dropped my fish in the wash.

Remember it being colder than 35 degrees though, it sucked.

Do it again in a second.

Bill,
after I landed Block Island Jeff's 15lb 'cow', and was holding it by the plug (needlfish) he hemmed and hawed about keeping it and it flopped off in the interim. End of story.

It was cold though, but Joe and I have done some colder nights in subsequent years....

I also have had colder nights. Worst I remember was maybe 92 or 93 with the late Gil Guillitone at the short wall. Had to be mid-Dec. 9 degrees and NW at 20. Saltwater freezing in the guides. As the sun came up there was a blitz on the backside of the wall. Nothing over 35" but a fish on every cast on white 1/2 oz bucktails.

i also remember fishing in front of PJ Light in a snowstorm with fish all around us but no takers.

This cold front arriving today should get the feedbag on IMO. Bait is still around. Seeing more blues. This is when to put in the time on the water. Have to juggle a few jobs around tides and window deliveries... Cod on Sunday hopefully. Chasing bass the rest of the time. Time to press is now.....
