Another solid week of fall running's. Fish coming from the beach , rocks, and back in the ponds. We had a full moon last night which has ramped up the amount of water moving. The moon is so close and bright almost feels like daylight. The increase in water movement has been causing bait to get flushed out of the ponds and bigger fish taking full advantage.
Large amounts of peanut bunker have begun to move out of the pond. Pond fishing has been great this week with solid sized fish being caught on large soft plastics and top water spooks. Mullet are still cruising around in schools in the farthest back coves.
The Breachway outflow fishing has been okay, we have not seen the numbers we usually see for this time of year. Reports of nice sized fish coming from the beach at night as an alternative. We have had some bay anchovies along the beach this week bluefish as well as shad have been on them.
Blackfishing is red hot, most boats finding their limit. With a good short to keeper ratio. Make sure your rigs are tied well and your line is strong enough to handle a big fish taking you into the rocks. You don't want to lose your biggest blackfish of the season.
Reports came in yesterday of bonito running between Charlestown Beach and Green Hill Beach and good numbers. Interesting to still be seeing them around with still minimal Albie action.
