Fishing reports, videos and more.
Other stripers continued to pop and swirl on the surface as I reeled this first fish in towards the tidal flat on which I stood. It felt cool to be standing here, on a piece of sandbar, nearly one mile from dry land, with a fish on the line. The sun was setting and the …
Spring time is the right time for catching Atlantic mackerel. Mackerel are not just fun to catch, but they are good to eat, and they make great live baits for cow striped bass. During this trip my idea was to check out some of the better known mackerel fishing haunts, to see if the macks …
Earlier this week I was able to squeeze in another early-spring Cape Cod fishing adventure. Stripers could arrive any day now on Cape Cod and I will admit that I am pretty excited. During this trip I hoped I would stumble across one of those very rare keeper-size holdover striped bass that I have been …
This trip actually began as a freshwater trip. I got all the way to Brewster before realizing I had forgotten my waders… This sort of thing happens to me somewhat often when I wake up anytime before 5AM. Instead of throwing myself a pity party, I decided to switch things up and head out into …
I am really fortunate to have grown up just a hop, skip and jump away from Cape Cod Bay. I was even luckier to have a 12 foot aluminum boat at my disposal, which I used as often as I could to chase striped bass and bluefish. Since then the boat has changed, and I …
Fishing in Brewster Massachusetts has to be one of the most unique fishing experiences in the entire state. In certain areas, during particular tides, the sandbars seem to stretch for miles in each and every direction. On a sunny and warm day it is easy to trick yourself into believing that you are fishing the …
Mazzola has a 23 foot Sea Craft center console which handles the seas much better than my 21 foot Hydra Sport. I would never think of heading out when the NE wind is blowing 15 in my boat. For the past few seasons just about all of our tuna fishing has been done via Mazzola’s …
Want to hook a tuna from shore? As ridiculous as that may be, now is your best chance to do it. Is there are a 60 pound striper in your future? If there is, then October is probably when it will happen. Looking to encounter a big shark, see a whale close to shore or …
Continued from the post Exploring Cape Cod’s Nooks & Crannies If you are looking to catch a big striped bass from shore during October on Upper Cape Cod, then the many boulder fields extending northward from the Cape Cod Canal is as good a spot as any to try. Stripers migrating south en route to …
Continued from the post Migrating Boulder Bass The first bite came virtually ontop of the submerged rock in front of me. I caught a glimpse of a bass behind my eel, so I paused my retrieve and the bass made his move. It was a small bass, and I watched him grab the eel by the …
It’s been one heck of a season for Cape Cod Bay fishing. Good striped bass fishing began way back in the month of May, and after a short lull, picked up again in late July. Recently folks fishing Cape Cod Bay have caught bass up to and beyond 50 pounds. The question on everyone’s mind …
The consistent early September bite that everyone has been enjoying on the Bay ended between the 19th and 20th of this month. The biomass of bass simply disappeared and most likely shot through the Canal into towards Buzzard’s Bay. I was out there on September 18th and 19th and enjoyed some spectacular fishing. Most folks …
