Hot Top Water Action | Buzzard’s Bay Surfcasting Report May 17

There's certainly nothing wrong with fishing the Cape Cod Canal or other well-known areas.  These spots are well-known for a reason.  They produce great fishing and big fish.Yet in my opinion one of the best aspects of fishing Cape Cod is the plethora of incredible, virtually unknown fishing areas.  Almost every rock and sand bar on Cape Cod has the potential to at some point in time, produce … Click to continue

Yesterday was an awesome day and a great cap to an incredible first week of the striped bass fishing season here on Cape Cod. I met Silas and Dan at 4AM on Saturday with the hopes of jigging up some live mackerel and then live lining them inside Cape Cod Bay for stripers.  We got off to a rough start when I found out that the guys weren't able to find anywhere to grab a coffee.  They were … Click to continue

Cape Cod Fishing Report | May 8I had a good feeling about today.It all started last night when I was rigging up gear for this morning's live mackerel striped bass fishing trip.  As I tied up hooks in my basement, I heard a "pitter-patter" noise just outside the screen door.  Naturally I was curious as to what was causing the noise so I walked over to the screen door to have a look.As I … Click to continue

Full Moon Top Water Action | May 6 Report

Last night was just spectacular. After days of overcast skies the weather finally broke and we were provided with a gorgeous, crystal clear evening.  The wind was dead calm and on top of all that we had a full moon. After a little coaxing I convinced Lauren to tag along with me for another surf casting expedition.  Lauren is  an awesome sport and a rookie striped bass fisher-woman, so I … Click to continue

Boulder Strewn Bass | May 3 Cape Cod Fishing Report

Cape Cod fishing report May 3The cool thing about Cape Cod (which I alluded to in the last report) is that you can fish one environment one day and then fish a completely different environment the next.  Striped bass are amazingly versatile creatures that regularly feed in a variety of different environments.Two days ago I found some fish in tight to the beach on the southside of the Cape.  … Click to continue
