Yep they are great pics.  Jigging for North Atlantic BFTs seems very productive.

Keep them coming as long as the season lasts please.

Blue fin jigging will end soon probably in a month, we will try to make as many trips as mr weatherman allows.
Anyone heading up to the US just shoot us an email and we will plan something for sure!
It will be back to the Cape in Massachusettes for the bigger boys on topwater in October!
It will be a crazy October!

Cheers,
Paul.
