Bloody Bluefish Attack

Bluefish blitz shot in Ocean County, NJ. Big bluefish (6 - 12lbs) are shown attacking adult bunker in the surf. You can see blood in the water at :23 seconds.
A pack of bluefish cornered a pod of bunker and tore into them. This bunker blitz happened in NJ this April.
Dr. Robert Chatillion, PhD, head biologist, World Oceanic Consortium, says "bluefish would be the most dangerous creatures in the sea if they were the size of sharks. Humans would certainly be on the giant bluefish's menu."

@IanIzBeast casting net for bluefish? I don't think so... lol... Adult blue can cut a metal leader... now imagine what would it do to a casting net...

Its fun fishing the "poor mans marlin" - bluefish. Too bad they taste like fried shit, best to just chuck them back or use them for Striper bait

[Kitchen965]

I've been bitten by Bluefish and it ain't a pretty site.

[boost521]

what was that at the 1 minute mark?

[jurassicsushi]

@RIPopperman Now imagine if you had some Bunker oil on you. Or a small cut. You are probably right about them not attacking, but they could bite accidentally and that would not be pretty.

[RIPopperman]

@jurassicsushi I remember one time when I was fishing a school of blues in Narragansett bay. I was only 100 feet offshore on my brothers boat and I had a new popper on and i was casting at the school near the beach and my bail closed and my popper landed on the beach. So I took off my shirt and sneakers and dove right into the school of blues to get my popper. They wouldn't attack a human because we're too big.
