Fishing reports, videos and more.
A couple of weeks ago I was driving down the mid-Cape highway as I often do. I spend a lot of time on this stretch of road en route to Cape Cod’s beaches, bays, harbors and estuaries because I like to go fishing. On this day I noticed a clear cutting operation going on and …
I was extremely fortunate to stumble upon a terrific night bite just last week and catch stripers up to 30 pounds all alone on the beach. It was an awesome experience! This week, bass up to 40 inches have been pushing baby pogies and sand eels right up onto the sand in certain areas on Cape. …
The air was cool and the wind had finally backed off. It was a gorgeous night to be on the beach. The clock had just ticked past midnight as I made my first cast of the evening. Three or four cranks of the handle was all it took to generate a bite. I set the …
I stood there in the darkness, with a good fish on the line, enjoying life. This is what Fall on Cape Cod is all about! The striper pulled hard and strong, and I let her take line when she wanted to. There was no need to rush this fish to shore. I wanted to make …
The technique we used at Hydrographer’s Canyon incorporated a simple trolling spread which consisted of spreader bars, single lures, and skirted ballyhoos. On Mike’s center console we are able to run a 7 rod spread with a long and short outrigger, two flatlines close to the boat, and a long line down the middle. In …
This trip took place August 9-10, 2014 and is written by MFCC member Andrew Massard, aboard MFCC member Mike Starr’s boat “Goin South” out of Oyster Harbors, MA. The crew for this trip was Andrew, Mike and Mikey Pajolek. My heart sank as the status of my flight changed from delayed to cancelled. I called …
This offshore Cape Cod fishing report was written by MFCC Contributor Andrew Massard and took place Sunday, September 28. Mike and I left the dock at Oyster Harbors Marine at 2:30 am and enjoyed what will probably be the calmest ride to the canyons I’ll ever experience. We could see the reflections of the stars …
In this 11 minute long video report I recap my experience hiking and fishing through 7 miles of Cape Cod’s wilderness. This trip began at 3PM and didn’t end until 3:30AM and included: Incredible scenery and unspoiled landscapes Boulder fields which produced 20lb class bass for me this past spring Night fishing footage and complete video …
I had been itching to “get out there” for quite some time. I did not just want to go fishing, I wanted to go fishing someplace wild and undeveloped. I wanted to cast a line into Cape Cod’s wilderness. When on foot, fishing a more remote setting like this one typically involves quite a bit …
Conveniently, one of the best fishing areas along this entire coastline was located directly beneath the great hill of sand ontop of which I stood. I peered over the side of the cliff and enjoyed a bird’s eye view of the structure which I would soon be fishing. The night was shaping up to be …
It had been nearly a month since my last Cape Cod surfcasting trip. Incredible how time slips by, wouldn’t you agree? The last time I hit the beach I caught a bass that weighed around 40 pounds. Big fish like that 40 pounder are a real possibility right now on Cape Cod. During this trip …
More than 150 years ago, Henry David Thoreau walked for 25 miles, from Nauset Inlet to Provincetown. I would like to do the same thing-but with a fishing rod in hand. So far this season, I have on numerous occasions, hiked long stretches of sandy beach, meandered through forests of scrub pines, traversed wild cranberry bogs …
