The cumulative total grows by leaps and bounds of herring leaping across the Mill Pond ladder! Every day since the restart of the count, we've had at least one triple digit count for 10 minutes, and the trend continues! It's not too late to get in on the fun - we had slowed down the scheduling after this weekend, but I think we'll have more fish into next week at the rate they keep coming! Please keep tabs of the daily counts on the Year to Year Comparison page, located
here.
For those of you who have been counting regularly, you may not have noticed the old herring run about 200ft north of the current run, immediately adjacent to the Galvin property. Take a look at it when you next count - there's fish there as well!
Many thanks to Bob N, Betsey and Bob P for sending in the following photos of the old ladder!

If you look in Bob N's photo, in the middle of the ladder, the layer of water is so thin you can easily see the wood bottom. This is where I saw a number of fish struggle to get by, above and below this, they moved easily.
