Our private forum gives our members a chance to post their questions, offer advice, share reports and connect with other anglers.

We have thousands of threads about fishing almost every part of Cape Cod. We also have threads for cooking, traveling, gear and equipment, and much more.

The forum also tracks statistics such as "most likes received" which means I can see which members are contributing the most, and which members are helping the most people.

Likes in the MFCC forum express agreement, support, and highlight interesting posts. The more likes a member has received, the more helpful their posts have been for other members on the site!

Today I'd like to recognize the top 10 My Fishing Cape Cod members who have accumulated the most Likes during the summer of 2019.

1.  Matt Murphy

365

According to his profile, Matt "fishes way too much", which I know many of us can relate to! Matt is a relatively new MFCC member, having joined about one year ago. However in that short time his posts have been some of the most helpful and enlightening on the site. From surfcasting the beaches to striped bass mortality rates, Matt continues to offer quality advice and insight on a weekly basis.
