Albies Act 2

The albies are back. You'll have to do
a lot of searching to find them. Stripers
and blues are also around in good
numbers.

The albies have been back for about a week now. Back in September we had an early start to the season, and fishing was very good in the beginning as it usually is at the start.  But, we had a couple of bouts of very rough water along with some big blows later in the month. That sent the albies packing, and many began to wonder if they would come back.  Well, they have.

We got out in the boat today and landed some.  My sense is that it is not loaded and you really have to look around to find them. We found some spots along the oceanfront with individual fish breaking here and there, which made for difficult fishing. Then, we found a small pile of them and for about fifteen minutes, we really had them. I was getting my fish on a pink albie Snax, an effective lure when the fish are close where you don't need a long cast. My brother Steve got his fish on a large plastic fluke fished on top. Surprisingly, my float and fly was not effective today.

In addition to the albies, we also landed good numbers of bluefish along with several stripers in other locations. We found areas where birds were diving and fish were breaking. There's a decent amount of small bait around right now, and it is attracting good numbers of fish, typical of October fishing.
