Up on the northwest side of FI. No takers for or on bait.

This is what was left behind.



I think these are bullet tuna.



Bloody bastids..



I used 2 on this nights session so I still have the 36 quart chest full on ice. Anybody want 'em?

No takers I'm hauling them to the bay and tossing them.

I may be able to meet you today if you still have them.  Let me know as it would have to be quick since I have things to do.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Thanks Jim for the bait. My freezer is stacked to the top.
There were 12 good shark baits and the rest will make excellent lobster bait!
Thanks again, now it's time to start getting some grinners!

Hope they get you some big lobsters Tom.

I really wasn't prepared for that much fish so the ones on the bottom probably degraded a bit overnight in the blood/water slurry.

I'll get some ziplocks and dry ice for next time. I'll post up there is another load and bait seekers are welcome.
