For the shore bound angler on the Cape Cod Canal, one alternative to summer’s annual dog-day fishing doldrums is fluke fishing. Given the right set of conditions, fluke fishing from shore can be an enjoyable and productive fair-weather summertime activity. Tackle for Fluke Fishingthe Cape Cod Canal When fluke fishing from the shoreline of the canal, …
Here’s something to wrap your head around – bluefish that tastes delicious! I’ve never been a big fan of bluefish. They have sharp teeth and oily, fishy, and worst of all blue meat, that makes them less than desirable (at least for me).For a long time, my husband Ryan and I have tried to figure out a …
In many Cape Cod fishing spots, you know if striped bass are being caught. That’s because during the summer, certain Cape Cod fishing areas get so busy that a crowd of anglers (or a fleet of boats) can develop. In these instances, you can easily see when someone’s rod bends over. If the fish are aggressive, …
Now that Ryan and I are getting a handle on our baby Hallie’s sleep schedule, Ryan will be out every week searching and hopefully catching a few slot-size bass. Of course I understand that many anglers these days are strictly catch and release when it comes to stripers, and that’s perfectly fine. But even for you …
When I first shared a recipe for ceviche on My Fishing Cape Cod we used halibut, which is a great fish to use for ceviche. However, I am guessing most people reading this have no way of catching their own fresh halibut! That’s why I wanted to recreate ceviche using fresh caught striped bass, because I …
One summertime activity I always look forward to is the clambake. I often equate a clambake to the “Thanksgiving of the summer” due to the amount of food that comes with them. The annual clambake that I like to put on each year generally coincides with the Fourth of July. Everyone gets together for food, fishing …

On May 17th I had the privilege of attending the American Saltwater Guides Association (ASGA) Fisheries Science symposium on behalf of My Fishing Cape Cod. A cool early morning sun settled onto the streets of Woods Hole, Falmouth, as a small crowd filled the sidewalk outside the Speck Auditorium where the symposium was scheduled to start …
Quahogs are a staple of summer on Cape Cod, and what better way to celebrate the warm weather than with a homemade stuffed quahog recipe! If you’re a New Englander like me, then you know a stuffed quahog when you see one. Just to be clear, a stuffed quahog is also known as a stuffed clam …
Bunker spoons often catch the largest striped bass in a given area. If you want to target the cows, then consider trolling spoons. I first trolled bunker spoons off Cape Cod when I was 18 or 19 years old. Most of the stripers I have caught trolling bunker spoons have weighed at least 25 pounds, with …
This article was originally published during the summer of 2021. Dogfish is one of those fish species that many fishermen curse. They often take baits intended for more sought-after species such as bluefin tuna or striped bass. Dogfish tangle lines and are difficult to get off the hook.
