Fishing reports, videos and more.
This past month I’ve spent my nights hanging with my girlfriend Lauren or working on the computer, reading an enlightening book or having a staring competition with our cat Izzy. It’s been riveting. It had been 6 months since I fished the beach at night, and 6 months is far too long a time to …
The bass soon realized that was something was not right. I imagine this realization is what sparked a powerful run down current, which resulted in a small amount of line being pulled from my reel. My flimsy fishing rod was bent into the shape of a parabola. I pondered the word parabola, as I looked …
The water was so calm that I could see my own reflection. Even more impressive, was how perfectly the sunrise refracted off the still water. Nantucket Sound was virtually one big mirror. Yet off to my right something was making a commotion in the water. At first I saw just one swirl, then a second, …
Because the water was so still, when my lure landed, ripples extended and reverberated throughout the water. I hoped the splash caused by the lure did not spook the stripers, which were now just feet away. I started my retrieve just as another small bass splashed on the surface, and slapped his tail against the …
Cold, wet, windy and rainy best described the conditions as I stepped foot onto the beach. I knew the odds of catching my first striper of the season on such a cold and raw day were slim, but I could not help but at least give it a try. I had already caught stripers by …
I was fishing the first part of the incoming tide, which I definitely prefer at this location. The area can be challenging to fish at high tide because water floods through the entire marsh. At high tide I need a really long cast to reach fishy territory, which isn’t possible when I am using my …
Earlier this week I was browsing the My Fishing Cape Cod forum when one of the posts caught my attention. The guys were chatting about a solid surf casting bite on both top waters and jigs. I was intrigued so I decided to go check things out for myself the very next morning. Half awake …
Continued from the post Ripping Bass off the Bottom The bass dug hard and used the current to his full advantage. I could feel each shake of his head as he dug for the muddy bottom. Luckily there were no rocks in the vicinity for him to snap me off on. I was using my lighter …
Before we dive into this report, I want to let you know that there is a lot of pretty cool and exciting things coming down the line here at My Fishing Cape Cod. I won’t get into the details just yet, but one thing I am really excited about is the My Fishing Cape Cod …
Continued from the post Lower Cape Cod Fishing Report | June 3 The fish was a small one and it didn’t take long to get him to shore. Either way I was just happy that there was indeed some life in the area.
...Mid-May is a phenomenal time of the year for Cape Cod surfcasting. The beaches and estuaries of Nantucket Sound are particularly good places to target the first keepers of the season. Based on yesterday’s fishing trip, I think it’s safe to say that slightly larger bass are filtering into the Nantucket Sound area with greater …
Continued from the post Nantucket Sound Report | Biggest Bass of the Year Even after the fight this fish still had a lot of gusto left in him. He continued thrashing around in just a few feet of water, trying like heck to get away from me.
