Since it hit the market a couple years ago, the Dartspin has proven to be a popular and effective lure for striped bass.
The dart spin is an ultra-durable soft plastic lure. I am not sure what type of material the lure is made out of, but I have been told it can even withstand small bluefish.
I filmed this video on May 15th, 2019. The video originally appeared on the membership side of myfishingcapecod.com. Today, I finally decided to share this video on YouTube, so non-members could check it out.
Conditions on this day were cold and wet with a brisk 25mph breeze out of the east - which I think got the bass biting. Please click play below to watch now!
Back on November 7th I hosted a group of members from My Fishing Cape Cod for a live presentation, Q&A session, and online meetup.
During this event I shared a video presentation which featured some of my favorite video clips from the 2020 Cape Cod spring fishing season.
Content included squid fishing, tautog fishing, striper fishing and more. If you are interested in re-living some of the fishing from this past spring, then this video presentation will be a worthwhile watch.
It's a sunny, clear and cool day on Cape Cod, with a crisp breeze blowing from the west. In this video, I'd like to share with you a brand new Cape Cod fishing report and MFCC news update which I hope you will enjoy.
There are still striped bass being caught on Cape (more on that in the video), and bluefin tuna fishing could remain strong right through Thanksgiving. Tautog are also biting well.
However, on days like today, I can't help but reminisce and feel a little melancholic, as I daydream about watching the summer moonlight on Cape Cod Bay, or the sunrise over Nauset Beach.
Ever since I was a little kid, I have heard anglers talking about smoking bluefish. I've eaten smoked bluefish before and I've always enjoyed it.
However, it was not until the summer of 2020 that I finally tried smoking bluefish on my own. I'm happy to report that the results were great!
Smoked bluefish has now become one of my favorite locally available seafood items. In this report, I'd like to share with you what I've learned so far about smoking bluefish and smoked bluefish recipes.
This video post goes alongside the written report which I published earlier today. If you haven't read that report, then you can do so here.
Bluefish are not only good for smoking, but as many of you know, bluefish are also a lot of fun to catch. They are aggressive and fight hard.
In this video, you'll come along on a tin boat blue fishing adventure with my wife Lauren and I. This video was filmed on September 5th 2020 inside Cape Cod Bay.
If you are a surfcaster, and would like to meet other surfcasters from My Fishing Cape Cod, then this would be a great event to attend!
MFCC Meetup is a speed networking format that enables everyone to connect with each other through multiple rounds of five-minute, one-on-one conversations. You can catch up or discuss a particular topic with each other.
This meetup has been created for anglers who primarily fish from the beach. The meetup will happen on Friday November 13th from 9am-10am. The event is free for MFCC membersto attend.
Cape Cod's saltwater environment is a wild world. Each day on Cape, countless underwater dramas unfold as predators such as stripers, tuna and tautog hunt their prey.
The vast majority of the action is never witnessed by human eyes. However, in today's video I'm going to give you a glimpse of the fascinating world beneath the Cape's waves.
I filmed the following video on October 8th in Buzzard's Bay. In this video clip you'll see an estimated 2 pound bluefish in hot pursuit of a live killifish. I found the agility of both predator and prey to be fascinating.
My Fishing Cape Cod will soon be turning 10 years old, and a lot has happened since I started MFCC during the winter of 2011.
The website has been a dream come true for me, and I'm happy to hear that members and fans alike have found MFCC to be a helpful and entertaining resource.
Today I wanted to recognize our ten longest standing members. None of what you find on the MFCC website, email newsletter, or social media channels would be possible without membership support. I can't thank you all enough!
Join myself and a group of members from My Fishing Cape Cod for a live presentation, Q&A session, and online meetup.
During this event I will host a live presentation featuring some of my favorite video clips from the 2020 Cape Cod saltwater fishing season.
A question & answer session will follow the presentation. We'll finish the event with an optional networking session, where each attendee will have the chance to speak 1-on-1 for five minutes with fellow members from My Fishing Cape Cod
Yesterday afternoon I decided to fish one of Cape Cod's beautiful kettle ponds. Carved out by glaciers thousands of years ago, many of these ponds are now home to big largemouth bass.
Recently I've been chomping at the bit to fish more with my 5 weight fly rod from the Goose. The weather yesterday felt like summer, so I figured I'd give fly fishing for largemouths a try.
My casting distance with the fly rod is limited, so I decided to walk the shoreline and scan the shallows for signs of fish. I knew my odds of success would be much higher if I could locate largemouth bass holding in shallow, close to the shore.
Today I'm adding a big batch of new "lessons" to the series of weekly fishing courses offered here on My Fishing Cape Cod.
Right now there are three different courses for surfcasting, inshore boat fishing, and offshore tuna fishing. Each course includes tutorials, videos, articles, podcasts and advice that you can only find here on My Fishing Cape Cod.
Course material is delivered via email every Tuesday at 6PM. Spacing out the content in this fashion will allow you to consume the information at a sustainable pace. You can learn more about each course (and enroll for free) by scrolling below.
