Spring has arrived on Cape, and one early season fishery I am hoping materializes in 2025 is the nearshore haddock bite in Cape Cod Bay. Last year this bite never got going with any consistency, but in years past the fishing not far from shore in the bay has been great. We will just have to …

I am fortunate to call Cape Cod my home. I was born and raised in the small town of Orleans, where driving out on the “Outer Beach” (also known to many surfcasters as “The Great Beach”) was a Sunday tradition for my family. Although I never did much fishing from shore in my younger days, …
At our recent My Fishing Cape Cod Season Kickoff event in Hyannis, we were fortunate to host two of Cape Cod’s most accomplished surf casters, Calvin Toran-Sandlin and Ian Mcpartland. These gentlemen have spent countless hours perfecting their craft along our shores, and their insights on reading beaches, selecting spots, and catching trophy-sized stripers are …
Kite fishing for giant tuna is the all jacked up, steroided out version of fishing a topwater plug for striped bass. The two concepts are at their foundations very similar. The only difference is that kite fishing can generate surface strikes from tuna the size of automobiles!If witnessing a massive topwater hit from a car …
Fishing in Provincetown, Massachusetts goes back centuries, well before the Pilgrims arrived on the Cape’s sandy shores. In fact, fishermen of a bygone era once landed mammoth 100 plus pound codfish, door-size halibut, haddock, and a variety of other valuable fish species right off the P-town coast. The fishing today may not be as incredible, but it’s …
There’s a certain magic to April on Cape Cod. While tourists haven’t yet descended in their summer masses and many seasonal homes remain shuttered, the Cape’s freshwater kettle ponds come alive with opportunity. As the calendar flipped to April 1st, that familiar angler’s itch—the one many of us know all too well—finally demanded to be …
Last week on Wednesday March 5th, I found myself caught in that familiar angler’s dilemma: too many responsibilities, too little daylight, and the persistent question of “is it even worth going?” With the New England Saltwater Fishing Show looming on the horizon, I knew my window for getting on the water was closing fast. What followed …

I’m always surprised by the number of people who believe that the annual trout fishing season runs for only five or six months a year. I’m often asked if I’m “anxious” to get back out on the water during the winter months. What these folks don’t realize is that there is no beginning or end to …
In the deep waters off Cape Cod, where the continental shelf gives way to dramatic underwater canyons, one of the ocean’s most impressive predators prowls the depths. The bigeye tuna, a powerful and elusive species, draws passionate anglers to venture far offshore in pursuit of these sought after fish. The following account begins with an exploration …
Today on social media I did some daydreaming and reminisced about the surfcasting I was fortunate to experience exactly 7 years ago this week. Specifically I shared a clip of catching a roosterfish from the beach on a popper, which is perhaps my favorite thing to do fishing-wise!Roosterfish have a distinct, unique and dramatic dorsal …
