Welcome to another edition of the My Fishing Cape Cod Chronicles podcast. I'm your host Kevin Collins (cousin of Ryan of MFCC).
Today we interview Bruno Demir-MFCC member and owner of Cape & Islands Mitsubishi. In fact you might recognize Bruno from his commercials during the 2020 season of My Fishing Cape Cod TV.
This week I launched my kayak for the first time this year. My plan was to troll the shoreline of Cape Cod's kettle ponds in search of trout.
Not only was I able to catch some nice fish, but I was also able to film trout underwater as they approached my lures!
In this post I'm excited to share with you new "breathtaking"underwater trout footage, as well as some tips and lessons I learned about trolling for trout here on Cape Cod.
Life is very different for most of us right now due to the corona virus. However, the cycles of nature continue undisturbed.
One event which many Cape Codders and New Englanders look forward to each spring is the arrival of river herring.
Yesterday morning as I was walking my dog, I could hear ospreys and hawks chirping from high above the trees for the first time this spring. This was a strong clue that river herring may have arrived.
Yesterday morning as I was walking my dog, I could hear ospreys and hawks chirping from high above the trees. This was a sure-fire sign that river herring had arrived.
During the spring, hawks, ospreys and other birds of prey gather near herring runs. These impressive birds will snatch river herring as they swim up shallow streams en route to spawn.
I hustled over to the closest herring run to my house in the town of Bourne. I scanned the shallow pools for signs of life, and sure enough just below one of the fish ladders was a beautiful school of herring.

Right now is one of the most exciting times of the year on Cape Cod. Everyone is chomping at the bit for the arrival of striped bass.
We still have a few more weeks until the first schoolie stripers migrate to the Cape, but until then many anglers here on MFCC have been hitting the kettle ponds for trout.
Cape Cod is blessed with hundreds of gorgeous little ponds. Many of these kettle ponds were carved out thousands of years ago by glaciers during the last ice age. The ponds are deep, often have amazingly clear water, and are surrounded by wonderful scenery and nature.
Today I'm excited to let you know that all 20 episodes of My Fishing Cape Cod TV are now available online at myfishingcapecod.com/tv.

Hello My Fishing Cape Cod! My name is Dan Jones, store manager at the Goose Hummock Shop in Orleans, Massachusetts.
In this article we will be discussing strategies and techniques that work on Cape Cod for targeting the elusive bronze-back beauty, the smallmouth bass.
Smallmouth bass (pictured below) are a hard fighting and acrobatic freshwater fish. Fishing for smallmouths can be very exciting and challenging.
