The fall blitz is upon us as the stripers fatten up for their fall migration. That means birds, bait, and busting bull stripers all over Boston harbor. Unfortunately for me, I have to go to a wedding in NJ this weekend and the marina closes on 10/15, so my window to get into these beasts is pretty small. I really have time for only one big trip before I have to pull out the boat for the season, and I’m planning to hammer the harbor hard on the morning of 10/10 (Saturday of Columbus Day weekend).

Boat will be leaving the dock at 6:00am and returning around noon.  If the guys I'm going with want to stay out there longer, I’m game for that as well. We'll want at least 6 hours out there so we can really cover some water to find the birds and bait.

October stripers make memories that last a lifetime (see below).
