Terns, gulls, osprey... to find fish in the water, plenty of fishermen pay keen attention to the activity of birds in the air.

This week on The Fishing News, we're joined by Kevin Blinkoff of On The Water magazine, who talks about what birds can tell us about the fish we're chasing. And we round up the weekly fishing action, including the lookout for the first arrivals of bonito and albies. Give a listen.
