It's a START!

I landed decent numbers of schoolies
that had lice on them tonight. The
migration has arrived.

 I landed one lone fish, a scout, about a week ago along the oceanfront.  In my mind, the season kicks off when I can land more than one fish in an outing.  Well, tonight that happened as I landed good numbers of schoolies that had lice on them, a sure sign that the migrating fish have arrived. My season has really begun.

In the spot I was fishing, I saw about 18 fish landed tonight by half a dozen fishermen.  These were all schoolies in the 14 to 22 inch range.  Most of the fish were caught on some type of paddle tail jig.  I got my fish on a white, NLBN, three inch paddle tail on a half ounce jighead. These have been my best producers in the last year when the fish are taking jigs.

So, the fish are here.  Look for these coming attractions in the next week or so.  Keepers should be here within week or so.  The fish should be moving into the Bay and the salt ponds along the oceanfront within the next few days.  And, it wouldn't surprise me if we see a bluefish caught before May 1.

It's happening!
