It is very troubling but just because there are no blitzes does not mean there are no fish. Despite the lack of surface frenzies, I see quality fish being taken on topwater plugs just about every morning up here on Cape Ann. It is the "sharpies" as I call them who are nailing these fish from sun-up until 7-thirty-ish. I have gotten fish up to the mid-thirties (inches) but they are getting them in the mid thirties (pounds). That being said, the lack of forage (peanuts) combined with the increasingly popular theory that far less fish pushed this far north, this is absolutely setting up to be a disappointing fall for those who rely on their eyes and not their legs/arms to find quality fish. I know I will be out there morning/noon/night for the next few weeks looking for my trophy. Cripes- I am surrounded by water up here and I cannot bring myself, however tempting it is, to travel to the canal and points south to find fish in the fall!
