"In the late 70s, there was a group of very large
bluefish here - we caught one 14 lb at Crescent Beach."
I remember one year, perhaps either late 1970s or early to mid 1980s?, when
the Minas Basin, Kingsport area I believe, had a large incursion of
bluefish, which triggered some fishing activity there. It made the local
newspaper, and I'm pretty sure I could find a date for that in my files.
