Welcome to another edition of the weekly My Fishing Cape Cod podcast, featuring the Goose Hummock Shops, Canal Bait & Tackle, and Eastman's Sport & Tackle.
We normally publish these podcasts on Fridays, but this week I am just returning from a trip to France, which is why we recorded this podcast yesterday afternoon, and are publishing today.
This podcast is definitely worth a listen! Today's show is jam packed with almost 40 minutes of fishing content and advice!
Bacon wrapped sea scallops baked and broiled to perfection with a chili and panko dusting and a sprinkle of manchego cheese, topped with tequila lime sauce.
It may sound like a complicated recipe, but I promise you it's really not.
These are definitely not your typical bacon wrapped scallops you find at parties and weddings, no sir. Just imagine the buttery taste and texture of fresh scallops, crisp bacon, sharp and salty manchego cheese and a creamy tequila lime sauce that will knock your socks off. Served with a warm corn salad.
False albacore usually show up in good numbers throughout Cape Cod and the Islands beginning in early September.
Personally I have not encountered any false albacore yet this season, but hopefully that will change soon! The first false albacore of the year could show up any day now.
Today I would like to share with you some helpful tips and strategies for fly fishing for albies here on Cape Cod.
This past Saturday August 17 myself, captain Cullen of Cape Star and MFCC members Jim Murphy and Cal Wheaton met at 5AM to go hunting for bluefin tuna off Cape Cod.
The plan was to hopefully locate some wild topwater feeds and cast swimming lures to school bluefin tuna in the 50-65 inch range.
The trip was fast-paced and pretty intense. The tunas were busting like crazy on the surface chasing bait but they were incredibly finicky and difficult to fool.
The 2019 season is flying by and I honestly cannot believe that late summer and fall is right around the corner!
Late August through September is quite possibly my favorite time of the year. The weather is good, the crowds have thinned out, and the fishing is usually productive.
In this post I want to let you know about some new upcoming group fishing trips, as well as great white shark viewing trips.
As always, it would be awesome to have you and your friends onboard for one of these memorable adventures. 👇
Light, airy Jonah crab cakes, made with freshly picked summer sweet corn and perfect for an app or a meal.
I used my handy air fryer for this recipe, which is great when you don't want to turn on the oven on a hot day, but I have directions for the oven as well!
You can make a quick lime crema to go with these crab cakes, or they taste great with a southwestern style salad, with ingredients like fresh pico de gallo, avocado and cilantro. You can also freeze them to enjoy in the colder months.
This past Tuesday night I donned my bathing suit and hit the beach at 11pm in search of stripers.
The moon was nearly full, and it was shining brightly through the foggy mist and clouds. The wind was dead calm.
I quietly walked down the beach, making sure not to disturb anyone who may be sleeping in the nearby houses. After a 20 minute walk I arrived at the spot, hopeful that some fish would be home.
Welcome to another weekly episode of the 2019 My Fishing Cape Cod podcast. This week we are publishing the podcast a day early, because I am currently on my way to France!
In today's episode we check-in with Ryan of MFCC as well as Evan of Eastman's Sport & Tackle. Sam of the Goose was unavailable on short notice, but Jeff from Canal Bait was able to relay me a report via text.
Last week I took a moment to highlight this recent success story from one of our members who managed this summer to catch his first-ever striper after many years of trying.
Reading these stories always makes me happy, and it helps to inspire me to continue pushing MFCC forward, and to continue growing our community.
In this post I would like to highlight another one of our most recent success stories, from John Patrick, who joined My Fishing Cape Cod as a member back in June.
This is a really awesome story. I was "pumped up" after reading it! 👊🏻
Yesterday afternoon while on a trip with Cape Star Charters we encountered a huge great white shark that was cruising over a shallow sandbar off Cape Cod, MA.
Great white sharks are here in abundance and yesterday we spotted a half dozen great whites in under 2 hours time.
Successfully filming the largest shark was a challenge, but we managed to capture some pretty amazing drone and underwater footage which you can preview below! 👇
