Cool, good to hear they are showing up. I might actually go after them this year, it’s been at least 10 years since I’ve fished the salt lol.

I don't like the taste of fish so I toss them back.

Me too, I don’t keep many fish at all. But by request of family members, I’ve been keeping more, just selective of the species I keep. Mostly invasive species and culled togue from Sebago have been brought home.

Had a few moments this evening and hooked into one myself.  This is as early as I can recall catching a spring fish where I was - I'm sure today's heat helped that cause but I'm hopeful this is a positive sign.

Mine from shore as well.  Having a boat should get you into a lot more fish.   Let's hope for a good run this year!    Would love to see the return of the fall run - haven't experienced that in 7-8 years and this used to be when I'd catch most of my stripers.
