Got out today for my first time since the storm. As I expected the false albacore came in. They have been showing in the vicinity of the Breezy Point Jetty for a couple of days. But as is normal when they first show they are hard, if not impossible, to feed. I chased them for several hours without hooking up on light spinning or fly. There were cocktail blues also in the same areas and they were taking small tins and flies with abandon, if you want to you could probably catch them till your arms fall off. There have still been some scattered sightings of skipjack tuna, but I covered 50 miles this morning to look for them and saw no sign. It is only a matter of days until the albies settle in fully and then they will become catchable. Will try to get out again Sunday and will report any improvement in that department.
Tight lines,
Capt Dave
