yup.. they have been moving for about 2 weeks now...
fall run.. extremely over rated..alot of fish have been "removed" by the seasons culling...weather( both good and bad) often is detrimental to availability... good weather holds fish in their summer grounds a little longer, and when they do migrate.. they ride the deep water current on the outside.. bad weather scoots them early, and often times makes difficult conditions for all that seek them.. and those that have been fishing hard all summer ( and still going to work each day) are bruised,battered and just plain wore out..I'll say this... this has been one of the best years for all sizes of fish I have seen in a long.... long time.. maybe 20 years..in recent years I've seen larger individual schools of bigger or smaller fish some years, but the regularity that the mixed schools have been available this season is noteworthy.. all summer mixed schools of small, medium and large bass have been available on a nightly basis...Only twice all summer did we have a night when at least one fish( over 15lbs)did not come over the rail..and within 24 hours we were back on them.. the deepest we fished all summer was 10' ..... this will make for some exciting fishing for someone somewhere south of cape ann in the weeks to come...that being said... I took next week off for vacation... one last hard core charge before it slows down up here.. I'll be living on coffee, Advil and ice packs... If I fail to put a single fish in the boat, on the rocks or in the sand... you'll not hear me complain...I've already caught my share.. returned home safely every night ( that I fished) and the weather allowed me to do what I wanted to on most nights.. that my friends is as good as it gets.. and who could ask for more...
tight lines all.. it's on!
