Fishing
by Beverly Durfee on November 1, 2006
Population numbers of bluefish have been documented to follow cycles lasting about forty years. A recent disappearance occurred during the 1920s, and anglers are still enjoying a high for the fish which began in the 1970s. They are migratory fish, following schools of baitfish such as menhaden shad and mullet, heading north from Florida in spring, all the way to Maine by the end of the summer.
If the bluefish stay true to form, the end of this decade will signal a slowdown in the snagging in these tenacious thrillers. To learn more about catching the bluefish, read Lehr's article "Fishing for Bluefish."

It will be interesting to see if global warming will have any effect on this pattern, I hope not, but it may be a possibility in the future.
