Boats That Fish for Bluefish in Connecticut
Bluefish Fishing in Connecticut
Party boats find blues by watching for surface feeding frenzies and bird activity, which are telltale signs of bluefish driving bait to the surface.
When the bite is on, the action is fast and furious. Every rod on the boat can be hooked up simultaneously, with blues hitting diamond jigs, metal lures, and cut bait rigs with reckless aggression. The experience of standing on a party boat deck with fish boiling on the surface in every direction is something that hooks anglers for life.
