Fishing reports, videos and more.
The spring saltwater fishing season is really starting to heat up, and members of MFCC have been reeling in some awesome fish. In this post, we’ll take a look at some very impressive surf caught striped bass from this past week. All of these catches were originally posted in the 2024 Surfcasters’ Thread inside our members’ …
Estuaries and marshes have always been early-season hot spots for several important reasons. First, the water in estuaries can be 10 degrees warmer than the ocean. Second, many estuaries are home to herring runs. The month of May can be a great time to fish Cape Cod’s numerous marshes and estuaries. In fact, it’s where I’ve …

In the world of fishing, where the quest for the perfect tackle setup never ends, the My Fishing Cape Cod community has established a new marketplace that’s become a valuable resource for anglers of all levels. Fishing gear accumulates, whether it’s the impulse buys from the latest tackle sale or the remnants of past seasons’ adventures, …
It’s still super early in the season to be fishing for stripers. The first migratory schoolie striped bass of the year probably won’t show up for another three weeks. Nevertheless, yesterday afternoon I felt that familiar “itch” to head out and give striper fishing a try regardless of the fact that it’s honestly too early to …
*This report and accompanying comments were first shared inside our private members’ forum. On a cool December 27th night my headlight cuts a winding path through the foggy dark for what may very well be my last hopeful trip of the year. Gearing up quickly and quietly, I grab my rod and surf belt, and check …
A couple of weeks ago I shared this blog post about some of the amazing catches My Fishing Cape Cod members shared this season inside our private forum. Since publishing that post, anglers inside our forum have chimed-in with more of their own personal bests caught from the surf this 2023 season. So let’s take another look …
This past season I went fishing twice with MFCC member Calvin Toran-Sandlin. During both trips we fished gnarly rock strewn areas. I’ll write up a full post about the experience as soon as I can, but in the meantime I wanted to share a little video footage from our first trip together. In this video, you’ll get …
Since starting My Fishing Cape Cod in 2011, we’ve had many excellent reports, articles, videos and other contributions from members. Today I’m excited to share with you a comprehensive PDF created by New England outdoors writer, John D. Silva. This PDF taps out at 1,333 words and includes photographs. I would classify this PDF as a …

There’s a growing lineup of vendors and plug builders who will be attending, including Al Gags, Happy as a Clam Plugs, Z Belts and others. The show is from …
Today I wanted to share this post because we have some really cool things going on inside our forum. One of the best threads I’ve noticed recently is all about personal bests for striped bass and bluefish from shore for the 2023 season. The thread was started last week by longtime MFCC member Mike Marcus. Now, …
Being surrounded by striped bass while standing in two feet of water is always exciting. The experience is even cooler when the fish are feeding way back in a tidal creek, in the troughs between sandbars. Throughout the estuaries and tidal flats of Cape Cod, schoolie stripers, as well as much bigger bass, will enter shallow …
