View Full Version : Macks already? NEXT2NUN 03-04-2007, 02:31 PM Macks or Hering, saw birds yesterday off Mishaum. Lots of schools on the sounder, big schools two weeks ago on north side of the islands. basswipe 03-04-2007, 02:44 PM Herring...didn't think of that.They could certainly be staging for their spawning runs.Water temp is above normal. Tagger 03-04-2007, 03:12 PM kinda early for macks .. another month plus from shore Pt.JudeJoe 03-04-2007, 03:55 PM Yes indeed grasshopper you have observed well. There were 6-9 in mackerel being pulled up at the causeway in Newport fri. A lone fisherman had a 5 gal. bucket overflowing with them.Capt Dom was there and caught a few using the guy's rod. We went there yesterday and the birds were finding small groups of them but they never came close enough to catch em. Also one of the giant Race Pt seals was in there having a feast. This is most unusual for these fish to be here now. It must just be an inconvenient truth.:angel: basswipe 03-04-2007, 04:04 PM Yes indeed grasshopper you have observed well.
