In answer to your question about Bluefish, he calls them @@#$%$%^@$%^@^@##%$^%$#@^% Blues because they shred so many umbrellas. He's also caught 2 baby Bluefin Tuna this year, although I don't know if I'd call 50 & 80+# fish babies. :)
As for powerbait I use Power Bass Jelly on my swimbaits sometimes and it seems to get me a few extra bites when they're just following, or miss it on the 1st hit. I wis they'd come up with a Saltwater Jelly because their juice washes off too fast, but I guess that's why I have Pro-cure Bait Butter.
Tight lines,
