Out at block island chasing big striped bass, I was waiting on the bottom in just over 40 ft. No bass but a school of bluefish came in like a blue angels coordinated flight. I had just enough time to swing the polespear and let fly a long shot on the fast moving fish. Hit it low but the gatku slip tip held strong!
