yea.they are on the move. I had those fish( that size class) for 2 weeks. selectively feeding and generally being fussy.. last Thursday I got 27 all in that size range... feeding like it was the last supper. now I know why they were so aggressive...Tues /Wednesday...nothing but schoolies...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Some of us have been saying it for YEARS. The Fall run begins a lot earlier than most think. I remember I crushed 30 to 40 # fish at Ballston the last week in August many years ago. They weren't residents I can assure you.

No boat, back in the suds.
