Wednesday evening my dad and I hit West Haven Beach. My dad was going for weaks while I concentrated on bluefish.

Lures I threw included a 10cm silver Flat Rap, 9cm shad Shallow Shad Rap, and 11cm blue sardine Max Rap.

Right around 7:30pm I felt a solid hit and pull on the SSR. Landed my first bluefish of the year!!!!!! I was so happy and celebrating!!!!! It was your average 2 or 3 pound taylor.

Then 10 minutes later other fishermen were landing them and I wasn't getting a single hit

Later I lost a blue on the Max Rap.

Started heading back to the car around 9pm.

My dad never got into any weakfish.
