Amy provides first hand reports of migratory striped bass arriving here on Cape Cod in good numbers. She has seen and heard reports of schoolie sized fish and keeper sized fish on the south side.

In addition, the ground fishing has been steady during the first week of May. Amy provides detailed information on Tautog, Sea Bass, and Scup as well as Squid and Blue Fish as well!

Lastly, Amy gives us a freshwater report for the kettle ponds of Cape Cod and what lures and baits are working well for Brown Trout and Large Mouth Bass.

Tight lines, take care, and thank you for listening! ðŸŽ£
