Ryan Collins This fishing trip began yesterday afternoon around 2:30pm. After a fairly long drive I popped out of my car, eager to check the inlet and nearby beach. There were birds and a seal diving and feeding in the crests of waves. I saw a small splash, which I thought may have been a striper.

Yesterday I was shocked to be catching monster bluefish during November! Big blues are still around if you know where to look, and are willing to travel. Yesterday actually began with micro-schoolies jumping and chasing bait in the early morning sunlight.

This October I’ve been surfcasting different locations, including spots around the Greater Boston area, in search of late-season striped bass.

I am having fun exploring new places, and catching a few stripers here and there.
During this trip (which took place on October 25th) I was surprised to encounter hundreds of cormorants, diving and feeding.

With so many cormorants in the area, I figured there must be bait around. Can you imagine the amount of baitfish required to feed a giant flock of cormorants?

Ryan Collins This trip began before sunrise nearly one year ago, on May 22nd, 2015.  My friend Jeff Coates and I were en route to New Hampshire, to target big smallmouth bass as they prepared for the spawn. Although we would fish in New Hampshire, it is also very possible to target spawning smallmouths here

Danny Guadagnoli The trip north from San Jose del Cabo, Mexico is a winding drive through dried riverbeds and a desolate landscape of endless cacti.  The many wooden crosses lining the narrow highway serve as a reminder that you’re in a wild place and ought to exercise caution. It was late June, and my dad

Danny Guadagnoli My first trip to Los Cabos came shortly after the first time I saw a picture of a Roosterfish in The World Atlas of Saltwater Fishing. With a little convincing of my mom (my dad was on board the moment I was), we were in Cabo San Lucas, the southernmost tip of Baja, strapped

Danny Guadagnoli Every winter, as I know most surfcasters experience, I find myself desperately trying to replace the void created with the lack of striped bass in my life. There came a point as a youngster when I could no longer tolerate this feeling and had to alleviate it the only way I knew how. I

The photos and videos of big cow
