Dan KennyMember of My Fishing Cape Cod since 2017After watching Ryan’s video of his first giant of the season, I left a comment about how seeing the unloading station at the very end of Barnstable Harbor brings back a ton of great memories for me. When I was younger, I spent 7 seasons as a charter …
Ryan CollinsDuring the summer of 2018 I stumbled across (and later untangled) a massive leatherback turtle that was entangled in a lobster pot line inside Cape Cod Bay. It was early September and I was motoring along in my boat, when I noticed a lobster buoy that was getting pulled under. My initial thought was “Wow …
Ryan CollinsI know some of you reading this are probably saying to yourselves, “Ryan what do you mean bruiser bluefish finally showed up? I’ve been catching them all season long!” Well that is terrific for you ✌?However big bluefish have been hard to come by this season for me! The weather the past 10 days here on …
Ryan Collins One can only imagine how good the fishing must of been in Plymouth Bay when the Pilgrims first arrived in 1620. In fact, General William Bradford even wrote that it was possible to walk across Plymouth Bay on the backs of striped bass. The early settlers even fed 3-4 foot long lobsters to their …
Ryan Collins My first experience striped bass fishing the town of Dennis occurred when I was a young teenager, maybe 13 or 14 years old. My dad had purchased a 12ft tin boat powered by a 6hp Johnson engine, and he decided it would be fun to pile his family into the boat for an epic …
Ryan Collins Barnstable Harbor is a tropical paradise during the middle of the summer. On a bright sunny day the crystal clear waters take on a turquoise glow that can make you feel like you’re in the Caribbean. Just about everywhere you look in Barnstable Harbor feels as if it was a scene taken straight from …

This trip was part of the limited number of educational charters I am offering …
Ryan Collins Over the past week I’ve fished nearly every single day with members of My Fishing Cape Cod. From fly fishing the Lower Cape, to surfcasting the beach at night, we’ve struggled at times, but also caught bass to 31 inches.The Lower Cape fly fishing adventures actually began with an afternoon quick stop at …
Lauren Collins This spring season has certainly tested our patience here in New England. There’s been plenty of rain, wind and cold, and not so many warm sunny days. On those rare days this spring when the sun has been out and the air feels warm, I feel you really owe it to yourself to get …
Shane Uriot The alarm echoed through my room at 3:30am, although I had already been awake staring at the ceiling. I always have trouble sleeping the night before a big trip, but that morning I was especially anxious. As many of you know over the past year Ryan and I have been working hard to bring …
