Ryan CollinsThis past Sunday I found myself miles offshore, surrounded by bluefin tuna, as I fished with captain Cullen Lundholm of Cape Star Charters and two year MFCC member Aaron Permlutter. We had numerous shots at big fish throughout the morning, but the tunas were being finicky, and were not easily fooled. In addition, dense fog …
Ryan CollinsOn the evening of Wednesday September 5th I met up with My Fishing Cape Cod members John Malloy and Shane Uriot, to do some shark fishing from my boat the Miss Loretta.

In fact, General William Bradford even wrote that it was possible to walk across Plymouth Bay on the backs of striped bass. The early settlers even fed 3-4 foot long lobsters to their …
Kurt Saraceno We left the Nantucket Boat Basin at 3:00am on July 4th for a day trip to the canyons. The weather forecast called for winds less than ten knots and a 3-5 foot swell. Unfortunately on the way out, the fog made for some interesting navigation and it took us a little longer to get …
Ryan Collins During the heat of summer on Cape Cod, the waters east of Chatham are deep and cold, especially compared to the shallow and warm waters of Nantucket and Vineyard Sound. Not far offshore the bottom drops off considerably and depths of 100 feet are located within just a few miles of the beach. …
