Could the weather have been any better this winter? I feel as if the winter never really happened here on Cape Cod, or really anywhere in New England for that matter. As I write this I am enjoying a nice “spring-like” breeze that is blowing through many of the open windows in the house. It’s …
Well we have crossed the mid-way point of the winter, which means we only have around 2.5 months until the first stripers of 2012 will be trickling into Cape Cod’s waters. To help get through these tough last couple of months, here’s a story from Captain Paul Peluso about a late October 2011 trip.

We all love fishing in the Northeast, but sometimes you just have to get away. Of course getting away is a lot more exciting when big yellowfin tuna and blue marlin are in the mix. Here’s a quick recap of a phenomenal trip off Puerto Vallarta. Brought to you by Captain Paul Peluso of MamaMia …

When trolling tubes via braided line, I like to experiment with spinning reels. Again, I purchase equipment that I can use to fulfill more than one purpose. In other words, the spinning reels I use to troll tubes are the same spinning reels I use to cast plugs and live eels. Because of line capacity …

 Click here for the latest Cape Cod tuna fishing report Skipping work to go tuna fishing was pretty commonplace during my early twenties. This rang especially true during September and October. Fortunately I had a good fishing buddy, and supportive father who were also willing to drop everything to go tuna hunting whenever the weather …

On a nice day, fishing the flats of Barnstable Harbor is more like fishing the Florida Keys than fishing Cape Cod. Stripers cruise in foot deep water, much like Florida’s famous bonefish. The water takes on a torquoise color that extends for miles in every direction. Under a summer sun tidal pools warm up to …
