I was around 20 years old when I first took the Miss Loretta to Provincetown.  We had just upgraded from a small skiff to a 21 foot walk-a-round.  The 21 mile jaunt across Cape Cod Bay to Race Point had always seemed a bit too precarious in the skiff, but with the new boat came …

It seems that each season striped bass select a different Cape Cod location to infiltrate in amazing numbers. Said another way, certain areas on the Cape fish incredibly well one season while past hot spots quiet down a bit. During 2010 and 2011 the indisputable striper hot spot was the area off Chatham.
