How are the runs going? I'm hearing that out on the Vineyard the runs are off from the past. Cold spring and offshore trawlers are some of the possible factors; also two bad drought years three and four years ago could have hurt the recruitment. What about the Cape, Buzzards Bay, Sakonnet River, Narragansett Bay, and the runs in Long Island Sound?
Just wondering about this year and the state of the alewife. I know that it is still to early to say with any accuracy, just how do you rate what you are seeing or hearing in the streams and rivers.
