Anything yet?
 

Anything at the west wall yet or typical first arrival locations? Water temps in CCB are still very cold.

I wouldn't expect much because with the amount of ice melt runoff, the waters flowing into the sea will be colder for a bit longer than usual.
That will generally mean a slower warm up of coastal waters.

That doesn't mean we couldn't have a spring heat wave, but I'm not betting on any weather predictions because their usually wrong.

I saw a few herring in middleboro today

Been going to the WW for the past 10 years on Marathon Monday....sometimes I catch a few, sometimes the skunk. I use the Marathon as my gauge, but I think I will wait another MONTH after this winter. The trout won't even bite my line......(in MA of course).

Wait, I saw a report from a local shop on FB that said water temp doesnt make any difference to stripers.

it was on the internet so it must be true

It said strippers and it's true!

SW/E posted fish at the wall....and herring in the runs. Pic of the herring. No pic of stripes.

Another month and we should start seeing bass in the Canal! I saw some 70's next week, things are going to start happening soon... I hope!!

They show up at the usual RI spots 7-10 days after the herring, right on time again this year.

Ha saw that and thought the same thing. You almost have to respect their brilliant FB propaganda tactics to boost business though...

I have no evidence but i think a lot of it has to do with the angle of the sun. Everything seems to jump into gear when the sun is higher in the sky, i know it happens to me.

ww :hihi:

There's always the chance of getting schoolies in some backwater estuaries. With shallower water, they tend to warm up enough to attract and keep schoolies until the larger fish hit our waters.

The earliest I've gotten schoolies and one keeper was March 5th some years back. If you can find shallow waters, and the sun is high, and the temps are good, you should be able to find fish.
