Today we have a new podcast about springtime fishing in Vineyard Sound. If you fish off Falmouth and over towards Martha's Vineyard, then this podcast might be of interest to you.
This podcast was recorded with MFCC member Jack Collins (same last name but no relation ?). Jack is 16 years old and is a sophomore at Falmouth High School.

During April Jack's family donated a 4 hour charter onboard their 29' Albermale the Scrimshaw as a giveaway for members of My Fishing Cape Cod.
The giveaway was a great success so I asked Jack if he'd be interested in hopping on a podcast with us.
Jack and his family run Falmouth Family Charters. They do most of their fishing off Falmouth, over by Martha's Vineyard, and down along the Elizabeth Islands.
So with that in mind I figured focusing the podcast around springtime fishing in the Vineyard Sound area would be appropriate.

Jake,
Gracie says Hi. She had a great time chasing her ball yesterday at Race Point and Head of the Meadow! Good thing she couldn’t read the Plover signs.
