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 …
Andrew Burke If you’re looking to put a bend in the rod before the striped bass migration returns to the northeast, look no further than the kettle ponds of Cape Cod!Every spring, the Massachusetts Department of Fish & Game stocks suitable ponds with rainbow, brown, and brook trout for anglers to enjoy.

Andrew BurkeHello everybody! I hope you had a great holiday season, and have been able to get on the water! Despite the cold temperatures, the freshwater fishing on Cape has been very consistent. 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.

Greetings MFCC! This is fellow member Stephen Madden, letting you know that the trout stocking trucks are out and about this October-one of the reasons why this is my favorite time of the year.
...This week has lots of potential! Many kettle ponds on Cape are finally ice-free, which for me means it’s time to give freshwater a shot. Trout will be my main target this week, but I’m not giving up on holdover striped bass either. Keep an eye on those water temps too, because once it hits …
I popped out from the path in the woods to a serene vista of an untouched and undeveloped freshwater pond. An entire spectrum of blues and greens filled the area around me and I was very pleased to discover that such a place still exists on Cape Cod. The Cape is famous for its saltwater …
