This spring I am extremely excited to be offering trips for My Fishing Cape Cod members to go fishing for winter flounder with none other than captain Mike Fowler of Bad Dog Sportfishing!
Captain Mike is an authority on Cape Cod winter flounder fishing. He's also been a featured speaker at numerous My Fishing Cape Cod events where he's shared invaluable winter flounder fishing advice and tips.

People travel from near and far to go flounder fishing with captain Mike. In fact, his springtime Cape Cod Bay flounder fishing trips are often fully booked up months in advance.
However, despite Mike being nearly fully booked, we've been able to reserve 6 dates for anglers from MFCC to join him on the hunt for winter flounder!
Here are the available dates:

The area captain Mike fishes has one of the best populations of winter flounder in the Northeast.
Flounder lay along the bottom and eat small fish, worms, clams, and mussels. During these trips you'll be drift fishing along the bottom using bait. Mike can supply rods and reels but you're free to bring you own if you prefer.
Catching winter flounder is a lot of fun, but the real draw of these fish is for eating. Without a doubt, flounder are one of Cape Cod's most delicious and best eating fish!

Flounder are highly regarded as a wonderful fish to eat. They have a beautiful white fillet that can be prepared many different ways.
Mike's boat The Bad Dog, is a 31ft BHM. It's a down-east style Maine designed hull that provides an exceptionally comfortable ride and safety in all weather conditions.
The Bad Dog is equipped with the most recent and up-to-date Garmin electronics. The boat is powered by a 350hp Caterpillar diesel motor paired with 300 gallons of fuel. It has a dry wheelhouse, a toilet, and a large back deck with plenty of room for fishing.

Refund/cancellation policy
If you need to cancel your reservation, and if you are able to let me know with at least 14 days notice, then I will be able to offer you a full refund with no questions asked.
If it's less than 14 days notice, then I will do my best to find someone who can take your spot, but I can't guarantee I'll be able to. If I'm successful with finding a replacement, then I can give you a full refund. Of course if you're able to find someone who can take your spot, then that works too.

All-in-all these flounder trips with Mike and Bad Dog Sportfishing are shaping up to be a blast! I am really excited to have Mike as part of our team of MFCC group trip captains.
