June 18, 2012

June is historically one of the best, if not the best month for striped bass fishing at the Cape Cod Canal. This week the early morning tides could very well produce phenomenal top water action.  The top water action this year, as is typically the case, has been best when ...

Mid-Canal Area
May 23, 2012

Unfortunately I was skunked yesterday but I still had fun and feel as if it was definitely a good decision to go down to the Canal in the rain.  You just never know unless you go. There's been a good amount of fish moving through the land cut this past ...

Top Waters During May at the Ditch
May 5, 2012

I'd be lying if I told you that catching a 40+ pound striper from the Canal happens regularly. For me at least, any bass over 40 pounds is something special. And yes I am still waiting on that coveted 50 pounder!Maybe this will be the year it happens for me, ...
