Bunker and the Branford river
Message:
Every night, the amount of bunker that travel into the river is absolutely INSANE! For the past 3 nights there have been bunker everywhere. You can snag them, scoop them up with a net, or hell, there were people snagging them on kastmasters. There's been a decent number of big blues following them as well, but they're hard to catch with so much bait around. I managed to land 2 9-10 pounders today, but bites were very limited. The snappers were the only consistent things all day. That said, I saw a ton of mycobacteruim? ( the red thread-like parasite) clinging to the sides of bunker and blues today. I've yet to see (or notice) any on the scup and fluke I've been catching.

Even with the warm water temps, seems like the bigger fish are starting to move in.
