Ryan CollinsHere in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, there is a 100 yard rock outcropping from which I can cast poppers into depths of more than 100 feet of turqoise water. Being able to cast lures into water that deep is a really unique opportunity. For example on Cape Cod, most of the time when fishing from shore, …
Ryan CollinsMahi-mahi had suddenly moved in within just a mile or two of the beach here in Mexico, so Lauren and I decided to hire a panga boat and try our luck. In this video we are fishing with local charter captain Juan Santana and his nephew Enrique, in the Los Arcos area of Banderas Bay, …
Ryan Collins48hrs ago the beach in front of our rental condo here in Mexico exploded with a big blitz of jack crevalles pushing baitfish right into the surf. I first caught glimpse of the mayhem from atop our condo, where I had a birds eye view of the jacks chasing some sort of bait that closely …
Ryan CollinsOn this very memorable late October morning, I woke up before sunrise to prepare for my first ever Cape Cod fly fishing trout trip. I have caught striped bass and other saltwater species on the fly rod, but never have I fly fished for trout. So needless to say I was pretty excited!The morning was …
Ryan CollinsSure it’s November, but you can still catch striped bass on Cape Cod! In this trip my dog Rosie and I found great action with schoolie stripers from the beach. I was not really planning on doing much fishing – instead I was primarily taking the dog for a walk. However it can pay to …
Ryan CollinsIn this video I am freshwater largemouth bass fishing from shore on Cape Cod during October of 2018. I am with my rescue dog Rosie, who I am discovering does amazingly well during fishing trips. She basically stays with me the entire time off the leash and doesn’t wander off anywhere which is great. The …
Ryan CollinsIn this video I am fishing with the team from the Goose Hummock Shops in Orleans and Dennis. We are on Phil Howarth’s 39 foot Contender fishing for “football” size bluefin tuna off Cape Cod. The day started flat calm with beautiful conditions. About an hour in we were hailed on the VHF radio and …
Ryan CollinsDuring the summer of 2018 I stumbled across (and later untangled) a massive leatherback turtle that was entangled in a lobster pot line inside Cape Cod Bay. It was early September and I was motoring along in my boat, when I noticed a lobster buoy that was getting pulled under. My initial thought was “Wow …
Ryan CollinsThere is nothing more exciting than seeing 500 pound giant bluefin tuna going airborne and crashing on the surface, as they chase bait at max speed. This was the exact scenario myself and MFCC member Aaron Permlutter found ourselves in last Sunday while fishing with Cullen from Cape Star Charters.Giant tuna were crashing the surface …
Ryan CollinsThis past Sunday I found myself miles offshore, surrounded by bluefin tuna, as I fished with captain Cullen Lundholm of Cape Star Charters and two year MFCC member Aaron Permlutter. We had numerous shots at big fish throughout the morning, but the tunas were being finicky, and were not easily fooled. In addition, dense fog …
Ryan CollinsOn the evening of Wednesday September 5th I met up with My Fishing Cape Cod members John Malloy and Shane Uriot, to do some shark fishing from my boat the Miss Loretta. It was a picturesque late summer Cape Cod evening, with a refreshing southwest wind and beautiful sunset. I had a melancholic feeling in …
Ryan Collins The morning of August 25th began with a trip in search of live bluefish for bait. Catching live bait is arguably the most important step of the giant bluefin tuna fishing experience, and I hoped I would find bluefish quickly and easily. Unfortunately striped bass were getting in the way. In addition, there were …
