Westport photo of the day: Nice catch!
Capt. Mel True shows off a schoolie bluefin tuna he caught last week about 10 miles south of Block Island.
Fishing out of the boat ramp at Westport Harbor, the Fishnet Charters owner said the 38-mile trip each way has been a safe bet recently, with a very consistent bite — vertical jigging and soft plastics have been the go to so far, he said.
