Tin Boat Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 A Vineyard restaurant featured fresh-caught bonito on their menu yesterday, November 21, caught by Johnny Hoy, well-known Island musician and angler. Bonito in catchable numbers in late November? This has to be a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clambellies Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 This year was a bonito first for me as they were so available at certain shore UDL. I enjoyed them immensely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tailslap Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 Bonito definitely can tolerate cooler water temps but getting them this late I would think is pretty unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're referring to the vineyard there was nothing UDL about it. Everyone on this rock knew where to get bones, it was just a matter of keeping the albies off your line. I only managed one small bone during derby but did get a few after of much nicer size, up to 8lbs. Island livin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonito in catchable numbers in late November? This has to be a first. It's possible last Monday I was out hauling my gear south of Nomans and came across a pile of bones or Albies. Didn't pay to much attention to them since I didn't have a rod with me. The water temp was 58 Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish. Not like going down the pond chasin' bluegills and tommycods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
