The wind was howling and the rain was coming down in sheets this past Saturday afternoon. Nevertheless I could not resist an overwhelming urge to head down Cape and do some surfcasting. I pulled my truck into the parking lot and was greeted by a chilly 30 mph wind out of the northeast. It was 1:15pm …
Ryan CollinsBack in early June of the 2019 Cape Cod fishing season, I headed out to a beach in this general area of the Cape, during the middle of the afternoon to catch the high tide. Striped bass had been coming extremely close to shore before and after high tide, which created a pretty cool sight-fishing …

The weather is also a lot more difficult during November, and with less fish around, successfully finding and catching is much more of …
Ryan Collins Surfcasting the beach on Cape Cod during a nor’ easter can be a challenge, with big waves and often a lot of weed – but it can also produce great fishing. However, fishing in these difficult conditions can be extremely difficult, and at times pretty dangerous. For example, I don’t recommend wading or going …

There are many different baits and lures that work well for stripers at night. However, there is one particular type of lure that is my “go-to” for surfcasting balmy summer nights.In …
