Bournedale Herring Run Closure?

I just read on another board that due to the poor run of herring to date that they have decided to shut down the Bournedale (Canal) Herring Run at 12:00pm tomorrow Friday May 6th for the season.

Can anyone confirm this?

Not that I was planning on flinging any herring this weekend but I know there will be a number of upset permit holders

Bournedale Herring Run Closure?

Forget Herring!

I think it's absolute B.S. to sell all these permits and then shut it down. They better be refunding the money to everyone who paid 25 bucks for a permit.

Is that even legal? Don't think it would be up here...

Out in Kalafoornya (OK, bad Ahnold accent) they have problems with stripers getting into stocked trout ponds and eating the trout before the anglers can catch 'em...

Who needs to go to California? The rainbows they stock in Gull Pond in Wellfleet do the same thing. They head out the herring run and they become Stripah chow! Scorton Creek and Old Harbor as well in Sandwich. Little tiny scales and they go down the old throat no problem. I wonder how many browns at Scorton get chowed each year?

Why even try.........
