harwich herring run
 

Ok guys,
I'm sure you're all tired of this line, but has anybody heard of news or been to the harwich herring run yet this year?
Thanks,
Repetitive Rick:happy: :eek: :laughs: :af: :smash: :smash:

I was just there last Sun. and the herring are so thick you can walk on them

There were none on saturday afternoon. It figures

RUN
 

I THOUGHT IT WAS CLOSED?????????

herring permit?
 

when they say you need a fresh water fishing permit to catch herring do they mean just a reg. fishing licence or is there a special permit for the herring??????????????????????????

Marty,
A fishing license will suffice.

Rick:p

rick your the man

Ps. how long do these herring run for, and is there a time when you'll no longer be able to get them in the runs

I am probably too late but Mar t the catch days are monday, wednesday, friday, and saturday only in Mass.

it's never to late
 

hey specialist,
thanks for the info on what days are what. now what i need to know is can i go to any run?
and tell me now, all i need to do is have the right net and a place to store them. A.K.A. (a tank).

thanks

P.s born and raised in quincy

a freshwater license will only get you herring at the state owned runs (such as watertown)...the rest of the runs are primailry maintained by the individual towns and require town issued permits (such as middleboro, wareham, bourne, etc.)...by now, i would think that nonresident permits are probably not available for most of the town runs...

All of this info is well and good, but the reason I posted was to figure out if anybody has taken herring out of, or gotten fined doing it, at the Harwich run?
I think I went through the same rigamarole last year as well.
Once again, answering my own question, I now have changed my name.
Rhetorical Rick:smash: :confused: :happy: :happy: :eek: :cool: :D

state runs
 

could someone kick in a list of state run herring runs so i can go get some herring.
thanks

Here you go Marty. http://striped-bass.com/regulation/massherring.shtml

harwich
 

OK thie is the deal w/ Harwich
1. 6 herring per person per day
2. if you bring a son or daughter they can have 6 as well as long as they net them themselves.

the two agents that are down there are a husband and a wife and they are extreme a## holes so be careful.

hope this helps
