Herring in Middleboro
First stop of the year going down 44 to visit my buddy in Plympton. Stopped at the run and saw some gulls. Looked into one of the pools and it was full of them...in February??? I was shocked

Was wondering when someone was going to start a thread about herring.
Probably came in on the Full Moon

Yeah I usually check the Wareham run first because my cottage is in Onset and it's closer. I wasnt surprised I saw them in Middleboro but I was kind of surprised about the number of fish present.

Good to hear, I have been thinking of herring for the last 2 weeks. Probably a good 3-5 weeks away as far as soco and the Bay inlets.
I modified the hardware on some herring plugs this past weekend after getting motivated by the RISSA show.

The Middleborough run if not the largest in the top 2 runs on the East coast. The amounts are pretty awe inspiring. I saw osprey this past weekend in Osterville on Cape also.

And so it has begun.
Herring and osprey sightings, soon it will be starlings and croakers.

the most amazing thing about Middleboro run is the distance those fish swim from the ocean to get to the Lakeville ponds, lakes. 25 plus miles. Here is a neat website you may find interesting

There should be plenty for stripers but I am done forever with Herring. I will not be going back to lugging and keeping herring for bass. It was fun but plenty of lures out there now that will do a real good job. I hope they never open up the herring runs for bass. It would be nice to leave at least one food source for bass to have.

Crawling through the culverts in Weymouth, mini mag clenched in your teeth. Tripping over shopping carts, scooping herring and killing yourself getting down to the cribbin with the fever of a Mujahideen. I never want to do that again, it is only just a fish after all.
