Ryan Collins Yesterday morning while fishing a shallow water sandbar off Cape Cod, a school of hundreds of striped bass appeared from out of nowhere and began circling around my feet.Most of the fish were schoolies but I did see some bass in the 40 inch class swimming in about 3 feet of water just …

Ryan Collins At 1:30pm yesterday afternoon, my friend Zach Lesinski of 2020 Sky Sight gave me a pair of headphones and closed the door of his 1963 Piper airplane. Just minutes later and we were 1,000 feet high in the sky, cruising over Cape Cod Bay spotting pods of Right Whales. This was perhaps the most …

Ryan Collins This fishing trip began yesterday afternoon around 2:30pm. After a fairly long drive I popped out of my car, eager to check the inlet and nearby beach. There were birds and a seal diving and feeding in the crests of waves. I saw a small splash, which I thought may have been a striper. …
Yesterday I was shocked to be catching monster bluefish during November! Big blues are still around if you know where to look, and are willing to travel. Yesterday actually began with micro-schoolies jumping and chasing bait in the early morning sunlight.
