Bluefish jaws, specifically. Spotted at "Bailout Beach"* under the Verranzano Narrows Bridge. Don't understand why nobody's ever made a schlocky B-grade horror flick about these bad boys...they've certainly got the equipment for the role!
*"Bailout Beach" - explanation will be given when I have a little more time for a trip report. Good name, though.
There is a windsurfer on Long Island who goes by the moniker "Bluefish Mike", a name he acquired after being bitten by some blues when he fell off his board during a feeding frenzy.
ReplyDeleteBluefish: they don't taste very good, and they might bite you.
Ow! Rotten way to end a session!
ReplyDeleteOr did he slap some duct tape on the lacerations and keep surfing?
ReplyDeleteSemi O.T. - I don't think I've ever seen such a pack of kites & windsurfers screaming around at Plumb Beach as were there yesterday.
I think Mike called it a day after the fish drew blood.
ReplyDeleteRe Plumb Beach, I'm not surprised...yesterday was the classic summer fantasy day: Sunny, warm, windy, and Sunday!
