Riding Out the Late-September Nor'easter

Welcome to special nor'easter edition of the My Fishing Cape Cod Podcast presented by Cape & Islands Mitsubishi and The Olde Cape Carwash. In this podcast, we are joined by AJ Coots of Red Top Sporting Goods in Buzzards Bay. AJ has an action packed Cape Cod Canal report for this weekend's full moon nor'easter focusing on big striped bass, sea bass, and bonito.

A late-September nor'easter rolled into Cape Cod this weekend, and with it came the usual tradeoffs anglers know well: unfishable beaches, dirty water, and a lot of wind — but also a jolt of fish movement that has plenty of local anglers excited!

In this report, AJ goes into great detail on:

Cape Cod Canal conditions leading into the nor'easter
How the Canal is fishing this weekend during the full moon and big blow
Bait options and how to match them within the Canal fishery
Targeting schools of bonito in the Canal
Black sea bass agressively feeding on top water baits in the Canal
Fishing the Canal safely during this big nor'easter
