Cooling Waters + Baitfish Boom = The Fall Run

Sven Atema

The thermometer may say "Summer," but fishermen watching the calendar know the season is changing, and it's time for The Fall Run.

Yes, it deserves capitals. For local anglers, this is Important. Some of the best fishing of the year happens in the fall.  

Kevin Blinkoff of On The Water magazine joins the Fishing News to discuss The Fall Run: what is it, and how can Cape Cod fishermen best take advantage of it. Also, we round-up the local fishing action - which includes big bass showing up at the Cape Cod Canal, and the albies apparently shifting along the south side of the Cape. 

It's all in the audio below - give it a listen.

Also, if you want to talk serious fishing with other anglers, if you want to check out a great range of fishing gear, and if you just want to have a good time, head down to StriperFest on Falmouth harbor this Saturday.
