Fishing reports, videos and more.
By November most folks have hung up their saltwater rods and reels for the season. I can’t blame them as most of the striped bass in the area, especially the larger bass, have moved on to warmer waters to the south. However for the diehards there are still bass around. Migrating fish will continue to …
October is a pretty wild month here on Cape Cod (and across New England for that matter). Earlier this week while fishing Cape Cod I was freezing my buns off while yesterday I was worried about getting sun burnt. Last year much of New England experienced a snow storm in late October and this year …
Cape Cod Canal fishing, unlike other areas of Cape Cod, seems to remain strong and steady right to the bitter end of the Cape Cod striped bass fishing season. Last season the Canal had bass right into the month of November. Based on the amount of life I saw in the Canal this past weekend, …
Yesterday was a flat calm sunny October day – perfect for fishing Cape Cod in the boat. I had my folks with me yesterday, my mom Kathy and my dad Jake. Two very nice people! My mom recently had surgery and had half of her left lung removed. Pretty serious stuff. Thankfully the procedure went …
Live eels work great from shore all summer long. However I believe striped bass eat eels with even more abandon during the month of October. The bass are on their way south, and they will happily slurp down an eel that happens to swim their way.
...It sure felt like mid-October as I set off down the long vacant beach at Popponesset. There was a chilly stiff breeze blowing in from the northwest, but the abundant sunshine helped to thwart the wind chill. The air was crisp and smelt fishy. I had high hopes for the trip after receiving some optimistic Cape …
Boy has it been breezy recently! Those familiar NW winds of early autumn have been rolling through with abandon the past couple of weeks. I’ve had to cancel 4 trips over the past week and half due to the winds. But that is to be expected; after all it is October on Cape Cod. The summer …
The ultimate challenge for me this October is to get into a school of 20-50 pound bass from the beach. Who knows if this will happen this season, but I really believe that I (and you too) have a good chance. Schools of hundreds of big bass do travel along Cape Cod’s beaches during October …
To my surprise the albie fishing is still holding strong in many areas throughout Cape Cod. For some folks the fishing has been pretty epic over the past couple of weeks with certain boats registering double digit hookups each trip! Double digit hookups are pretty darn impressive considering how finicky these speedy fish can be. …
Targeting false albacore throughout Vineyard Sound is a great idea during the fall. Not only can the area be inundated with false albies, but you’ll also have a good chance at catching bonito, stripers and bluefish. Not a bad scenario to find yourself in. Andrew Inches, a member of the blog, was nice enough to …
October is known as the month of the “cows.” Hawgtober is what a bunch of Canal guys used to call it when I was younger. There is no doubt that if you want a big bass, now is the time. However over the past few seasons I have personally noticed that October has been slightly …
