Fishing reports, videos and more.
Ryan Collins During September throughout Cape Cod & the Islands, small baitfish known locally as “peanut bunker” begin to move along the shoreline.These fish travel in large dense schools containing thousands upon thousands of fish. Needless to say the schools of peanut bunker often attract the attention of striped bass, bluefish, false albacore and sometimes …
Ryan Collins Last week from Wednesday May 31 until Saturday June 3 I had an amazing opportunity to stay at a cottage in the quiet town Truro.While there I explored and fished the coastline from Eastham to Provincetown on foot and from the kayak. If you are interested in fishing and visiting this area of …
This week I encountered thousands of schoolies while fly fishing from my kayak off Cape Cod.
We are certainly blessed to be seeing all these small stripers so late in the season! Perhaps they will stick around for a few more days – dare I say weeks!
The following kayak/fly fishing trip occurred earlier this week on the morning of Wednesday November 2nd. These fish were still here as of today.
...The striper fishing for me the past 72 hours has been challenging.
There have been some good pushes of fish through parts of the Cape (we’ll talk about that later) but for me the fishing has been very hit and miss.
On Thursday night I had this decent trip jigging on Cape with 8 bass up to 30 inches. On Friday and Saturday I decided to head off Cape and explore Plymouth Bay via kayak.
Ryan Collins 48 hours ago I encountered the most epic albie feeds of my life while fishing off Cape Cod, in the hobie kayak from Sturgis Boatworks. Throughout this memorable day I watched at least one thousand albies as they fed all over the surface. I saw fish as large as 12 pounds go flying …
Ryan Collins Wow! It sure was a wild weekend on Cape Cod. The beach chairs were out in force and the party was on. I attended an epic wedding and an unreal 30th birthday party, while being surrounded by endless July 4th celebrations. I met people from My Fishing Cape Cod and had a great time with …
Ryan Collins My plan was to fish during the evening and again at sunrise the next day. However that is not what ended up happening, especially with flat calm conditions and a bright, nearly full moon. My idea was to use the hobie kayak from Sturgis Boatworks to stalk striped bass among one of Cape Cod’s most …
Ryan Collins Join me in this video report as I kayak fish the bays and boulder fields of Cape Cod in search of the first sea-lice covered stripers and tautog. This trip began before sunrise just a few days ago on the 28th of April. My idea was to fish a southside bay for stripers before …
Ryan Collins This week I’ve been kayak fishing from the Hobie and encountering some wild scenes. From stripers and acres of adult pogies, to seals and even an orphan squirrel! You just never know what you might encounter when kayak fishing on Cape Cod. It’s great to see all these micro-size stripers, but what I’m most …
Albies have been coming within reach of surfcasters and anglers using small boats or kayaks, so I recently decided to splash the Hobie and try to chase them down.I must say I had one heck of a time keeping up with the fish! This 4+ minute video report recaps the entire experience. Click below to view.
...This past weekend I was able to venture out in the kayak in the early AM and again in the evening. During both trips I was lucky to find striped bass in very shallow water. Some of these fish were quite large too. The biggest of the bunch was a 25-30 pounder which was hooked in …
As we move into the New Year, I find myself reminiscing about the 2014 Cape Cod saltwater fishing season. Throughout the 2014 season I can swiftly recall numerous highlights and memorable moments, in which I declared “I will remember this come winter!”Several of those memorable moments include:
