Its already begun in some places. Last week in September/first week in October is usually best for me. August has been pretty strong this year too, unlike last year. Presence of bait is a secondary indicator to me as I've seen real good and real bad regardless of the bait present.

Up and running here on the North Shore. Working birds and busting bait have been seen every day this week. Local harbor chock-o-block full of bait.
Temps in the upper 40's at night have caused it to kick off early IMHO...
