Default Battling bluefish

We found a school of hungry bluefish, but couldn't get close enough. So, we came up with an idea. We took the hooks off a heavier topwater plug so that we could make a really long cast and perhaps tease the fish close enough for us to cast with a fly rod.

While doing so, I snapped a few photos and got these pics.

I used a Nikon D1. It's a little old, but still works pretty well.
