My Fishing Cape Cod group fishing trips are an affordable way to experience some of the best fishing Cape Cod has to offer. In addition, these trips are an excellent opportunity to learn and meet other people from My Fishing Cape Cod. Plus you might even get a chance to be on TV!
Originally I had announced online registration would take place this Saturday April 30th, however I need more time to finalize all the details. Therefore registration will now open on Saturday May 14th at 9AM. Plus I want to give everyone sufficient time to look at the dates and ask me any questions.

The Group Fishing Concept
Charter fishing is traditionally not cheap. Private trips with quality captains often cost between $800-$1,500 (or more) depending on the type of charter. My Fishing Cape Cod group trips help make the experience more affordable by offering trips on a per-person basis.
When you go on a My Fishing Cape Cod group trip, you'll be fishing with captain Cullen Lundholm of Cape Star Charters, and a crew from My Fishing Cape Cod. This year we are doing our best to offer a variety of trips for black sea bass, stripers and tuna.
Below are the dates I have scheduled so far for the 2022 season. Usually these spots sell out quickly, but I will do my best to get you out fishing this year. For example, if all the striper trips sell out immediately, then I will talk with captain Cullen and we'll try to arrange more dates.
Costs this year will probably range between $240-$590 per person depending on the type of trip. I say probably because there's a chance some of the prices below might change as I finalize all the details.
So have a look below at the trips I have currently have on the schedule, and please feel free to reach out with any questions.
Black Sea Bass
Black sea bass trips typically depart from Taylor Point Marina in Bourne around 6am and return by 11am (or earlier depending on how quickly everyone catches their limit). Final details will be emailed to you 24 hours in advance.
Cullen's brand new 33' Conch center console is a huge fishing platform and will offer everyone ample elbow room for fishing. All fishing rods and tackle will be provided.

School Bluefin Tuna | South of the Vineyard
During these trips will be targeting smaller bluefin tuna in the 30-200 pound range. During late June we we are planning on fishing south of Martha's Vineyard, unless we get word of a hot bite somewhere else. These are smaller tunas that you can keep and bring home to eat.
Techniques used during these trips could include casting and vertical jigging with spinning tackle, or trolling with conventional tackle. All gear will be provided.
Expect to depart around 5am and return around 8 hours later. Port of departure varies and will depend on where the fish are biting best. Final details will be emailed to you 24 hours in advance.
Cullen's brand new 33' Conch center console is a huge fishing platform that can easily fit 6 anglers and still provide everyone ample elbow room for fishing. Nevertheless, I have decided to have a maximum of 4 anglers onboard for these trips.

Giant Bluefin Tuna | East of the Cape
During these trips you will be targeting giant bluefin tuna east of Cape Cod. This is the type of fishing you see on Wicked Tuna. Giant tunas are some of the largest fish in the ocean, and in past years captain Cullen has caught giants as large as 1,100 pounds.
Any tuna caught onboard these trips will be sold by captain Cullen and you as part of the crew will not receive a percentage of the sale. In other words, you won't be bringing home any meat for dinner or earning a paycheck, but you will be going home with invaluable tuna fishing information that cannot be obtained anywhere else. There is also a high likelihood that you will see dozens of adult humpback whales as they breach and bubble feed.
Giant tuna fishing east of the Cape with captain Cullen can be an incredible and exhilarating experience. The perfect crew for this type of trip is a crew that is in it for the adventure of heading offshore, seeing whales, and having a chance to do battle with the largest fish in the ocean.
Techniques used during this trip will be live-lining bait (most likely mackerel) on 80 class conventional setups. All gear and tackle will be provided.
Expect to depart around 5am and return around 8 hours later. Port of departure varies and will depend on the weather. Final details will be emailed to you 24 hours in advance.

More Information
For our 2022 group fishing trips we'll once again be teaming up with captain Cullen Lundholm of Cape Star Charters. Captain Cullen has years of experience fishing the waters surrounding Cape Cod and the Islands. He also has an extensive network which helps him stay on top of the fish.
Since 2015 we've been running group trips with Cullen for haddock, tautog, black sea bass, stripers, bluefish, and bluefin tuna. In total we've run well over 100 trips with Cullen and they are always an adventure and a great learning experience for everyone onboard.
This year Cullen will be running a brand new 33' Conch center console boat which is a fishing machine.
If you'd like to do a deep-dive into past group trips to see what they're all about, then please review some of the videos and reports linked below.
