Average year up my way Mackerel fishing is all over ,moved off by fathers day .. In the rocks its lobsters and crabs. Those herring that went up and spawned. Thier off spring should start coming out around August I think ,, Use to jig them up on Sabita fly rigs at the pier and fish them over the ocean side or live-line right at the pier. Last year on MY beach was the first time I heard of huge adult Menhaden beaching themselves fleeing fish . Kinda excited with the past good years we had with peanut bunker.. Hoping the Menhaden will come back in large schools .. Another part of me says .. "whats the use" .. "They'll just be targeted big time and beaten down again" . Up my way there's always Seaclams at the low water line (sand)to dig up and throw on the hook . September the Smelt fishing begins ... excellent bait fish .. Never in more than 15' or 20' of water and they stay close to shore. I think they stay with in a mile , not that I can cast that far . Flounders are making a comeback too.. Bass will eat juveniles .New Boston poop plant hopefully will make things better over the years .. although flounder fishing was never better than when they emptied poop trucks on the ebb tide at Hull Gut . I'm sorry what was the question ?
