There were good numbers of bonito around Sugar Reef at the end of the ebb tide, which is when I happened to get out there. Despite several chases and half-hearted hook ups, none were landed and the fish disappeared at the end of the tide.
Caught the start of the flood tide at Watch Hill Point and the place got real busy with fish breaking the surface between the bell buoy (a nice shiny new one replacing the one lost when Hurricane Bill came by the area) and the point. The fish turned out to be Little Tunny (false albacore), and they continued to feed heavily for about a half hour after which everything just turned off. I managed to land 3 small fish, in the 6 to 8 pound range, before the action shut down.
Both speedsters are in the area now, and hopefully they will stay a while.
