What actually constitutes "blowing open" is different for everyone. I've been getting numbers of fish, but none over mid-high teens weight wise. Blowing open to me would be an influx of 20# plus fish in good numbers with some bigger mixed in, perhaps some high 30# stuff and bigger. This week usually starts it where I like to fish, so we'll see what happens.

All I know is when it starts you just know its happening without needing confirmation from anyone else...as do my wife and kids... my wife is going on her 16th fall run with me...god bless her...10th anniversary is next friday night...someone remind me if I forget and wind up down the canal.
You fish the the June or July full with me and you'll go away a changed man... I'm of the opposite camp.. I hate those dark new moon tides... nothing but grief....

A good run is better than a bad stand!
