After they fire off the starting gun!!!!

Typically after a few GOOD cold fronts, from mid October to mid December. Depending on the strength of the cold fronts. |

| It depends where you are fishing they seem to run a little early on the upper coast. But we need a good cold front to come through. |

If only I knew enough about them to say that for myself. I'm going out to make an attempt at finding some Saturday morning. |

The first front already got them moving from the marshes and deep in the bays. Itll take another month for them to show up for what most call the run in November. _________________

Limited out on flounder in about 2 1/2 hrs on Thursday night. The wind was blowing a lot harder than the forecast called for. Looks like our real first cold front is almost here !!! I can see the lightning is about 40miles from us now. This years flounder run may start a lil earlier than usual  _________________ Come out & gig some flounder with Straight to The Point Guide Service!! http://floundergiggin.com/ for more info
