Cape Cod Fishing Report | May 8 I had a good feeling about today. It all started last night when I was rigging up gear for this morning’s live mackerel striped bass fishing trip.  As I tied up hooks in my basement, I heard a “pitter-patter” noise just outside the screen door.  Naturally I was

Lots of Keepers and Tons of Macks | May 8 Report
May 7, 2012

Last night was just spectacular. After days of overcast skies the weather finally broke and we were provided with a gorgeous, crystal clear evening.  The wind was dead calm and on top of all that we had a full moon. After a little coaxing I convinced Lauren to tag along with me for another surf

Full Moon Top Water Action | May 6 Report
May 7, 2012

Last night’s fishing was a lot of fun to say the least. It’s hard to beat fishing under a full moon with flat calm conditions.  On top of that I had a great fishing partner! We were fishing the Boardwalk in Sandwich, also known as Old Harbor.  This is a great spot to take rookie

Cape Cod Canal Fishing Report May 4 Sometimes you just have to stay up for 24 hours straight! Yesterday was one of those days.  I woke up at 5am for a meeting on Friday and finally finished filleting and cleaning up just before 5am on Saturday.  I guess I better get used to this whacky

Night Shift at the Cape Cod Canal | May 4 Report
May 5, 2012

This bass put a decent bend in the rod so I knew he was a keeper. He took a little line which was nice, but I really had the drag locked down because the area I was fishing has many jagged rocks and structure that bass in the past have used to break me off.

Cape Cod fishing report May 3 The cool thing about Cape Cod (which I alluded to in the last report) is that you can fish one environment one day and then fish a completely different environment the next.  Striped bass are amazingly versatile creatures that regularly feed in a variety of different environments. Two days

Boulder Strewn Bass | May 3 Cape Cod Fishing Report
May 4, 2012

Based on what I’ve been hearing through the grapevine I would expect the Canal to catch on fire over the next week to 10 days – knock on wood of course.  Believe me I’ve been wrong about 100 times before, but from what I’m hearing we have some seriously nice fish trucking our way. There

Old Silver Beach

Cape Cod Fishing Report May 2, 2012 One of the best parts about fishing Cape Cod during May is the solitude. Last night I had an entire beach all to myself.  Just me, a few nice fish, seals and the birds.  I walked up and down the beach for around 2 miles without seeing anyone

Seals Lead the Way to Good Fishing | May 2 Report
May 3, 2012

Last night was a lot of fun.  It really is awesome having an entire beach to yourself.  Catching a fish or two is really just a bonus. South Cape beach in Mashpee is a great spot to check out during the month of May.  I always venture down to South Cape at least once each

Spring Stripers at South Cape
May 2, 2012

I was all sorts of pumped up to get out striped bass fishing yesterday for the first time in 6 months.  The strong wind, rain, fog and nippy temperatures were not going to deter me.  It’s May on Cape Cod which means one thing – the bass are back! I’ve recently been receiving all sorts

Awesome Start to the Season | Schoolies and Keepers May 1 Report
May 2, 2012

The weather over the past couple of days has been tough to say the least.  Good news is that there seems to be more and more fish filtering in as the days progress. Word from the south is that there are small keepers in most of the estuaries, creeks and harbors dotting the Cape’s coastline.
