Fishing reports, videos and more.
It’s nice to finally see the sun again, and I’m crossing my fingers that the good weather lasts right on through this weekend. We are certainly due for some beach weather, so hopefully tomorrow and Sunday turn out to be just that. If you head out fishing this weekend, you most certainly have plenty of …
After a day of not fishing I was starting to go through withdrawals so I made a concerted effort to get out for an hour tonight. I didn’t have much time to plan the trip, but I still liked my odds of at least catching a fish or two. I really enjoy exploring new areas …
I had always heard stories growing up about the great schoolie striper fishing at Scudder Lane. It only took me about 20 years but I finally made it down there tonight. This is a really cool place with easy access and plenty of fishing options. There is even a tide dependent boat ramp that would …
If only every trip could be this fun and productive! I met Anthony, Tom and Adrian this morning at 4AM. The guys were all fired up and so was I. We had picturesque, flat calm, crystal clear conditions. Needless to say the morning had a ton of potential. Both Tom and Adrian were looking for …
It’s an exciting time of the season to go fishing off Cape Cod. I heard numerous reports today of guys catching over 400 pounds of mackerel. That is a TON of mackerel. I can only imagine how messy their boats were! Mackerel infiltrate the waters around Cape Cod each spring. However some springs are far …
Cape Cod Fishing Report | May 8 I 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 …
Last night’s fishing was a lot of fun to say the least. It’s hard to beat fishing under a full moon with flat calm conditions. On top of that I had a great fishing partner! We were fishing the Boardwalk in Sandwich, also known as Old Harbor. This is a great spot to take rookie …
Could the weather have been any better this winter? I feel as if the winter never really happened here on Cape Cod, or really anywhere in New England for that matter. As I write this I am enjoying a nice “spring-like” breeze that is blowing through many of the open windows in the house. It’s …
On a nice day, fishing the flats of Barnstable Harbor is more like fishing the Florida Keys than fishing Cape Cod. Stripers cruise in foot deep water, much like Florida’s famous bonefish. The water takes on a torquoise color that extends for miles in every direction. Under a summer sun tidal pools warm up to …
Viewed on a chart Billingsgate Shoal is the most noticeable and extensive are of structure inside Cape Cod Bay. The Shoal extends from a few miles north of Dennis’ Sesuit Harbor to northernmost point of Wellfleet. Back in the 1800’s a small village of houses was located on Billingsgate Island which once sat just outside …
It seems that each season striped bass select a different Cape Cod location to infiltrate in amazing numbers. Said another way, certain areas on the Cape fish incredibly well one season while past hot spots quiet down a bit. During 2010 and 2011 the indisputable striper hot spot was the area off Chatham. The fishing …
Over the past several seasons we have consistently found and hooked up with tuna in certain areas around Stellwagen and Cape Cod Bay. Without a doubt some spots have consistently produced action and sightings, while other regions seem for the most part devoid of tuna life. Take this with a grain of salt and remember …
