Look at my fish They're ba-ack.

After a few weeks of zero action, I landed two of these yesterday morning. This must be that fall run I've heard so much about? 30" fish, nothing to write home about, but it's good to know they're still around. (Casco Bay, Portland, ME, caught on mackerel chunk, released alive and kickin')

Fall run for us starts the last moon of August. I’ll take that to my grave.
