Fishing reports, videos and more.
There are still plenty of striped bass north of Cape Cod in places like Boston Harbor, Scituate and even along the New Hampshire coastline. Those fish have to move south at some point and when they do they will either go around the tip of the Cape, or move south through the Cape Cod Canal. …
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 …
The warm air temperature and clear sunny sky pushed me back into midsummer mode. I was standing barefoot in the sand gazing out at the wide open Atlantic, completely enveloped by the blue color of the water and sky. On the horizon was a whale watch boat, probably making one of its final trips of …
Continued from the post Lower Cape Cod Fishing Report Andrew was hooked up, right at the point where the perpendicular bar touched the shoreline. I reeled in my eel and hustled down the beach, towards the action.
...October is the month for cows on Cape Cod. The only 60 pound striped bass I know of have been caught during the 10th month, known to some local fisherman as “Hawgtober.” In my lifetime I only know of a handful of 60 pounders that have been taken from the Cape Cod area. If there’s …
My night began around 9PM at a very “in demand” surfcasting location. Often times the best rock to fish from already has another angler perched ontop of it. Whenever I head to this location I make sure to have a backup plan. Fortunately I had the entire place to myself. Still I hustled down to …

As is often the case, the honey hole which has been producing so well for me recently, completely dried up this week. I am confident that big bass will return to that particular spot, yet until that happens it is time to explore and find new surfcasting hot spots. One area where I plan on …
Continued from the post Lower Cape Cod Fishing Report | Searching for a Fifty On one horizon the last of the sun was disappearing behind the dunes. On the other, a nearly full moon was rising above the Atlantic. There was not a cloud above us, which meant that we were in for a very bright …
Every once in a while, if you stick at this fishing thing long enough, you end up hitting a hot streak. This past week has been red hot for me from the beach, with numerous fish in the 20 – 30 pound class. Yet I know things could change in a heartbeat, so you can …
