1. Massachusetts Fishing Report- September 10 , 2026 (onthewater.com) — Anglers along the Hingham waterfront are seeing intermittent runs of mackerel, squid, and smelt off local piers, part of a broader surge in fall fishing action. The latest statewide report highlights strong striped bass, cod, and tautog bites from the South Shore through Greater Boston, with specific tips on where and how to target fish close to home.
2. New starters make an immediate impact for Hingham in win over Hanover (wickedlocal.com) — Hingham football fans just saw their junior class power a 35-0 shutout of Hanover, highlighted by three rushing touchdowns from Justin Kosierowski and a 77-yard scoring pass from Liam Merrigan to Jay Kargbo. The Harbormen now turn their attention to their Sept. 18 home opener against Abington, giving local supporters an early chance to see this promising group in person.
3. Tiny turtles on the march, a highway bridge mishap, and a wild pool party (bostonglobe.com) — A delivery driver passing through Dedham twice called 911 about a wild-sounding pool party in Hingham, reporting vomiting guests and alleged drug activity, but police ultimately found no action was needed. The quirky incident appears alongside other unusual but non-emergency calls from towns like Stow, Hopkinton, and Wilmington, offering a light look at recent police logs.
