Continued from the post Fishing Cape Cod’s National Seashore | May 16 Report I started this trip fishing a 9 inch black Slug-Go on a 2 ounce lead head. Slug-Go’s do a good job of imitating sand eels, which are one the most prolific striped bass prey items in Cape Cod waters. Whether fished weightless or on a …
Click here for the latest Cape Cod Bay fishing report I have been fortunate to have fished Cape Cod Bay each May since I was around 6 years old. As a youngster, the month of May was a time to catch mackerel from the Scusset Beach jetty. I vividly recall epic mackerel bites while …
Continued from the post Cape Cod Fishing Spot of the Month | Cape Cod Bay The first step in yesterday’s trip was to load the live well full of live mackerel. Last season at this time this task only required about 20 minutes of fishing-the mackerel were just that thick. So far this season loading the …
Mid-May is a phenomenal time of the year for Cape Cod surfcasting. The beaches and estuaries of Nantucket Sound are particularly good places to target the first keepers of the season. Based on yesterday’s fishing trip, I think it’s safe to say that slightly larger bass are filtering into the Nantucket Sound area with greater …
Continued from the post Nantucket Sound Report | Biggest Bass of the Year Even after the fight this fish still had a lot of gusto left in him. He continued thrashing around in just a few feet of water, trying like heck to get away from me.
...Catching tautog from shore on Cape Cod is not something I have ever tried before. But after seeing tautog all over the place this past week while surf fishing for stripers, I decided I had to give it a try. I am no tautog expert but I do know they absolutely love green crabs. Tautog …
Continued from the post A Double Header of Tautog and Stripers from Shore That first tautog was actually quite challenging for me to catch. I began the trip by using one of those generic tautog rigs that is made out of heavy wire and all sorts of terminal tackle. Something like the rig in the …
With each passing day more bass, and larger bass, are filtering into Cape Cod’s bays, sounds, harbors, estuaries and of course the Canal. Right now is an awesome time to be a striped bass fishermen. It’s an even better time to fish Cape Cod from the surf. We might as well enjoy these near-shore opportunities …
Continued from the post Cape Cod Canal Fishing Report | May 10 Instantly the bass took notice, turned and hammered the pencil popper. I was on instantly with a good bass. My rod bent hard towards the water’s surface as line began to peel from the reel. Fish on! And it was a good size …
I would first like to say thank you for your patience yesterday while the MFCC website was down. Quite a few people emailed me letting me know that something was wrong, which was really great. We should be in the clear now, but of course if you find something that doesn’t seem to be where …
Continued from the post Cape Cod Canal Fishing Report | May 8 The plug landed just beyond and to the left of the bass. As I began the retrieve I realized it was not just one fish, but an entire school of bass that were molesting a school of what I think were tinker macks. …
Yesterday was flat calm and sunny, which meant it was time to splash the Miss Loretta and head out onto Cape Cod Bay. As I prepped the boat yesterday I could not help but think about this past Thanksgiving, which was the last time I was out on the water. I find it amazing how …
