Fishing reports, videos and more.
Lauren Collins For most people, visiting Cape Cod is strictly a summer expedition. You pack up the car to spend a week in a little cottage down Cape, explore the beaches and towns and eat as much ice cream and lobster rolls as possible. For Ryan and I, we have the very fortunate privilege of exploring …
Ryan Collins The sun is shining bright today and the gale force winds have finally eased off. There is still some snow on the ground but spring is definitely in the air. The good folks over at Mass Wildlife have been very busy the past several days, dumping thousands of trout into many of the ponds …

Andrew Burke Hello My Fishing Cape Cod! I hope spring is treating you well, and you’re able to spend some time on the water. The warm weather is (hopefully) here to stay, which means the fishing action throughout Massachusetts will continue to heat up! Personally, I haven’t done any serious saltwater fishing since the fall. I’ve …
Billy Mitchell With whispers coming through the proverbial fishing grapevines that the stocking trucks had begun their semiannual pilgrimage to the various kettle ponds on and off the Cape, I immediately began concocting plans to make my way down to one of these ponds with the fly rod, even if it meant breaking through a …

Small minnow-style lures and metal spoons have been producing trout on the stocked ponds of Cape Cod.Normally, I prefer to use lures when …
Andrew BurkeMFCC Intern The moment I crossed the Sagamore bridge and looked down at the Cape Cod Canal, I simply couldn’t resist the urge to wet a line. When I finally arrived at home for Thanksgiving break, I wasn’t in the house for more than 10 minutes before I was out the door again with my …
As the weather gets colder there will be more black midge hatches on the kettle ponds in Southeastern MA.
The stocked trout from last year will key-in on this food supply, and the new stockies will soon begin to figure it out…eventually.
The best flies for imitating these hatches are a midge pupa, size 14 and 16 on a long leader tapered to a tippet of 5x or 6x.
I plan on chasing stripers right through the winter, but with November right around the corner, largemouth bass are now biting hard.
One of the simplest and most effective ways to catch a largemouth in a pond right now is to use what is known as a Rooster Tail.
Rooster Tails are great lures for kids to use, because the technique is so simple, and because they catch almost everything that swims in a freshwater pond on Cape Cod and elsewhere.
Michael Mathias I arrived at this particular Salter Run at about 11am. The weather was sunny, and the temp on the dash was exactly 50 degrees. The wind was from the SE at about 10 knots. My plan was to hike upstream as far as I could. The hike would take me about a quarter of a …
I set out on this fresh water fishing escapade on Friday, February 12th. It was a chilly morning. My phone weather app was broadcastings a high of 11 degrees for the day. I dressed in triple layers; top and bottom. If you fish in this cold weather I recommend investing in a set of Under …
