any signs of life in the boston habah area

finally got my boat on a slip after trailering for 8 years and going out on wed. .I usually consider may 15 opening day (for me) on stripers , usually enough fish around to give me a good shot at them . but weather has been cold and not sure if water temps are right yet . b.f. reporting 52 at surface , i'm pretty sure macks will be here but are there stripers , not looking for spots just an overview if anyone has been out

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
