Spanish Mackerel Feeding Frenzy & The Cocktail Bluefish Invasion Bay Rats & Buoys Podcast
This week’s episode of Bay Rats & Buoys is all about the hot action happening right now in our local waters! Captain Gaige is breaking down the lures and tackle that worked best for us this week chasing multiple inshore species. We stopped into Hi-Hook Bait & Tackle in Huntington to load up, and the gear did not disappoint. Spanish mackerel made a strong showing, and we even had them spitting up spearing as they hit the deck. These lightning-fast predators are a blast to catch, and they’ve become one of our favorite targets during this part of the season.
On top of that, the cocktail bluefish invasion is in full swing across the Sound. If you’re looking for rod-bending action, these aggressive blues are stacked up and feeding hard. Just a little further east, the gator blues are chewing as well, so we’re planning our next trip to lock horns with those big toothy brutes. Looking ahead, we’re gearing up to chase false albacore (albies) and bonito on our upcoming expeditions. The fall run is heating up, and now’s the time to be on the water.
Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting special guest Jo Jo Napoli — “Captain of the Kitchen” — on the boat. Not only did he help us get on the Spanish macks, but he’s also showing you how to catch and cook these tasty speedsters on his YouTube channel. Whether you want tips on finding fish or putting them on the dinner table, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
Captain Gaige also highlights a few boating products and gear upgrades that every angler should consider as we head into cooler weather. Safety, comfort, and efficiency on the water are always priorities, especially as the fall bite ramps up.
And here’s the best part — you can fish with us! We’re inviting fans and followers to join us on future trips. All you have to do is comment and interact with us here on YouTube and Facebook.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
