Gimme that fall run magic! I’ve got fall run fever. There, I said it. Sometime in the next few weeks, a cool breeze will sweep through our bay, the humidity will get sucked out of the air, tiny year-of-young peanuts, silversides, and herring will appear, and the proverbial fall blitz will commence. And down South […]

You’ve been hearing the same thing from every report and forum post for the past month: Big ones are right around the corner! Any day! Next tide! Here they come! Well, I’m here to tell you this. They’re still not here (not in any types of consistent numbers anyway). We have plenty of fish just […]

It’s feeling like the end of something. This weekend, we’ll most likely get our last decent weather window to target some buzzer beater stripers. We’ll be out there, but I’m not sure what to expect. This has been a year of just that. I’m working on a season reflection now, but the patterns of […]

Kinda feels like the end, doesn’t it? Well, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. I keep getting the questions. Where are the fish going to be after the storm? Will it blow the migration out to sea? Scatter the bait? Push the concentration of bass from locations North down closer to the Cape? And to […]
