Bluefish Frenzy at Race Point Beach, Cape Cod

[darklordbill]

I hit a day like that once on the Race. I believe it was 2004, and there were literally MILES of bluefish making the water boil, 10 feet from shore. In between those blues and the shore, were bass up and over 40 pounds. Most insane day of fishing I ever had, must have caught 50 blues over 5 pounds, and lost $200 worth of gear.

[feezo23]

[szymonbeefcake328]

k heres some advice for whoever made this video... put down the camera, get a nice surf rod and a pencil poper and cast and hold on!!!!!!

[FishOnFishing]

what would you reccomend to fish with?

[johnnybravo234]

@FishOnFishing Anything with a hook. Bluefish dont give a %$#ck

[greatsantini7]

@FishOnFishing anything that is the shape of a fish and make sure you have a leader so the fish don't snap the line

[FishOnFishing]

@greatsantini7 yeah

[Soilderfrontprokilla]

im gna go with my pops out there from ny how long will the trip be if im in brooklynn

[kulisb]

I'd say at least 5 hours....and that could definitely increase with traffic

[Hydra773]

@Soilderfrontprokilla

lol no way... to get there you just need to go through CT and MA... it would take you 3 and a half hours tops.

[ronaldreika]

if you smell the area during or after the attack it will smell abit like watermelon.

for the life of me can't get one to taste halfway appetizing, why?

[JIMFISHES1]

I'm jealous, that was definately a time to a castmaster in the water!!!! (or even a bare hook)

[PabloLara7]

what's the best time of the year to catch bluefish there?

[francmeister420]

when the bait is on the beach like that

[kulisb]

Usually September. There's always some sort of blitz that happens, just some are MUCH bigger than others....

[PabloLara7]

when is the occasion do they come in this much?

[francmeister420]

they are migrating and gorging on bait bluefish will eat and eat til they pop and than eat somemore

[edwurd1240]

that sucks if u didnt have a rod, but a good site, i went to nut island quincy massachusetts today, bunch of baitfish, not many blues.. some small ones.. its kinda fun catching them.. and a bunch of sand perch.

Now that's a sight you might not see for 15-20 years! Back in the 80's you could go fishing for not even 30 minutes here in Boothbay Harbor, ME and catch 20-30 good size Blues! That was when they were driving the Pogy's up. Man, them bastards, there were so many of them. The city spent thousands and thousands of dollars to pay to have just tons and tons of dead Pogy's cleared off of waterfront roads and the shoreline. All you could smell was dead fish. We spent a good 20 years killing them.

[francmeister420]

yeah and now my kids arent gonna be able to catch em cause of the greed and selfishness of the old timers killing every fish they hooked..

THANKS ALOT.!

[xxStratxx69]

I'm not the kind of fisherman that goes around in a 500,000 dollar trawler netting them all. Those are the greedy people.

[petard47x]

wow reallly my great grandfather and my father ued to live up there and they told me the same thing you just said

[raab17]

where is that place???

[brycro]

cape cod in massachusetts. very nice place, especially fr fishing.

[50KgGT]

Oh my...that's leg-shaking blitz!

[sh0rtbus]

i would throw a cast net and bring home 10 keepers in one throw hahaha

[born2fish16]

i went surf fishing 2 weeks ago and there was a frenzy with all the baitfish jumping and all...caught 8 blues on poppers...they were all over 8 lbs

[lkblondiex3]

[Waynethekid]

[yippieperm3]

[dethman263]

[StudioCape]

OHH god i remember that, we all caught a LOT of bluefish one day, we filled our cooler and used them for lobster bait, it works unbelievably well.
