The Chesapeake's Fastest Predator Has Returned

#SpanishMackerel #ChesapeakeBay #Fishing Every summer, calm water across parts of the Chesapeake Bay suddenly erupts into motion. Baitfish scatter. Birds begin diving. And one of the Bay's fastest predators returns once again. In this River Realm Life documentary, we follow the annual migration of Spanish mackerel from Atlantic waters into the Chesapeake Bay, explore their incredible speed, feeding behavior, seasonal movements, and discover why Chesapeake anglers eagerly await their arrival each summer.
