We hope you all had a fun Labor Day weekend. The weather was good, and the fishing was better. Stripers are still hanging around the coast, but cooler waters have started the fall migration.

Thanks to all who attended our annual Septemberfest event. It seems that hunting seasons are preoccupying the minds of many anglers, indicated by the thinner reports coming in. Those who are fishing are doing very well though.

Inconsistent weather brings inconsistent fishing, but those catching know that you can’t catch them from the couch. We are receiving good reports of bluefish and striped bass along the coast, and better lake trout and salmon fishing inland.

It’s that time of year when reports get slim, as many anglers have turned to archery deer season. With their departure leaves more room for anglers who want to take advantage of some of the best fishing of the year.
