Hello and welcome to the second My Fishing Cape Cod podcast of the 2017 season!

In our quest to provide you with timely intel, I want you to know we recorded this podcast yesterday (Thursday) afternoon around 4:00pm.

In this action-packed episode, the guys share their most recent fishing intel from the past few days, and tell you how to prepare for this coming weekend.

We kick things off with Ryan Collins, who tunes in via cell phone from a parking lot overlooking Cape Cod Bay. Ryan fills us in on everything from 18lb stripers, to cod from the beach. 

Then we catch up with our good friend Jeff Miller of Canal Bait & Tackle in Sagamore. Jeff gives us the full scoop about what's happening down along the banks of the Cape Cod Canal.

Our final guest is captain Eric Stewart from the Goose Hummock Shops in Orleans & Dennis. Eric gives a full update on Lower Cape Cod, from schoolies to preparing for tuna.

In this episode we cover:

  • Squid and areas to catch them (1:45)
  • Rumors of striped bass to 18 pounds (3:46)
  • Atlantic Cod caught from the beach (6:06)
  • The "tremendous" haddock bite and MFCC group haddock trips (10:50)
  • Jeff's prediction as to when big bass will move into the Canal (14:40)
  • Lure and color choice for Buzzard's Bay and Canal bass (15:45)
  • Hottest new inventory at Canal Bait and Tackle (17:38)
  • Captain Eric Stewart's schoolie fishing report for the Lower Cape (22:20)
  • Prepping your boat for spring at the Goose Hummock Shops (24:50)
  • Looking forward to the start of the offshore and bluefin tuna fishing season (27:15)
  • And much more...

    • Brian – I really appreciate the feedback. Glad you enjoy the shows! Let me know if there is anything in particular you would like covered and we can try to work it into a show in the near future!

    • James – You are most welcome. We try to lay out the show as best we can, but also try not to keep it the same every week. Glad you enjoy the format!

    • Joe – Same here my friend. I was supposed to potentially get out boat fishing this weekend, but with the weather the way it was I decided to stay put. I am aiming to try to get out next week and hopefully you can do the same!
