Carolina Blues

"The Bluefish Blitz" occurs on occasion in the Outer Banks surf during late October to late November. Big hungry bluefish, ten to eighteen pounds, returning south from the Chesapeake Bay and New England waters, travelling in large schools, attack smaller prey in the Outer Banks surf, driving them up onto the beach, churning the water and literally attacking anything that hits the water in their feeding frenzy. Surf fisherman stand elbow to elbow, casting spoons into the surf, hooking monster blues virtually on every cast. If you have been fortunate enough to participate in one of these legendary bluefish runs, it is an experience that you will remember the remainder of your life. "Carolina Blues" depicts surfmen on a moonlit evening on Hatteras Island, North Carolina.
