It’s been a season for bonito like no other in recent memory, with the speedsters showing up in numbers across the region and giddy reports from anglers. It hasn't always been this way. Or has it?

We've got more on this year's bonito bonanza, plus a roundup of other inshore action. And a mention of white marlin south of Nantucket — very cool. Give a listen.
