You know, I bet I have posted 10 times that the Fall run starts a lot earlier than most of the guys realize. Mid-August is the start. We saw it back in the mid 90s when the Back would start lighting up with pods of large in mid to late August. August 28 of 96 I had 8 fish mid to high 40s# at Ballston. We saw it at the Canal this year. September was hot quite a few days. As the regulars like Tony O and Redlite.
We don't see that late Oct run like we use to. We don't see the huge schools of peanuts. We don't see the massive schools of Blueback herring with millions of Gannets diving on them. They move earlier and their feeding habits have changed as I see them keying on Bay Anchovies and adult Bunker.

No boat, back in the suds.
