Ma runs have been closed for more than 20 years; remember when they closed them in 2003. Could dip 25 a day back then. A lot of the runs have rebounded; keep hoping they would open up a few on a case by case basis and let us dip maybe a half dozen, but it hasn’t happened. Now that striper fishing is tanking, may not matter any more.

I remember an early spring trip on the North Shore of long island catching bass in the mouth of the nissequogue with Alewives pouring out of a tidal creek and hitting me in the leg. it was one of the cooler fishing experiences i've ever had.

I poked around a few Connecticut herring runs over the weekend and saw more than just a few scouts at each. Returned after dark to fish one and found even more herring with some small bass mixing-in that were unwilling to strike a plug.

Yeah, there was no question that live herring were the best bait back then. Fished the runs after they closed them with other stuff and never had much luck. Really sad they never let us use any after that.
