There may be 3 feet of snow outside, but in my mind, spring is not that far away. I plan on wetting a line about one month from now, as soon as the snow and ice begins to melt.
Whether you want to catch trout, stripers or just some fresh air, we sure have a lot to look forward to!
Here's 10 reasons to already get excited.

I am happy to announce that getting information about the Cape Cod fishing areas which interest you the most, just got a bunch easier.
Follow the below 2 steps and you will be well on your way.
As of right now the weather for this week is looking pretty reasonable. Unless the forecast changes (as it often does!) we might receive a day or two of "balmy" southwest winds.
If you want to catch at least one more keeper striper from shore on Cape Cod, then I feel this is the week to do it. In this post I'll share with you a few places worth checking out over the next several days.
Before I dive into this post, I want to let you know that I am thinking of hosting an in-person fishing class before the weather turns too cold. Topics covered would include how to work certain plugs like pencil poppers, how to fish a live eel and virtually anything you may personally be interested in learning.
A couple of weeks ago I was driving down the mid-Cape highway as I often do. I spend a lot of time on this stretch of road en route to Cape Cod's beaches, bays, harbors and estuaries because I like to go fishing.
On this day I noticed a clear cutting operation going on and I watched in utter disbelief as I saw tree after tree being cut down. This sparked me to act immediately, and the result is the information presented in this blog post.
If you care about Cape Cod's natural environment, I urge you to read on.
September is a special month for fishing on Cape Cod. The seasons begin to change and in many areas, the fishing begins to improve.
September is the start of my favorite time of the year. I feel an exciting energy permeating through me.
Call me crazy but I love September, and here's why.
One way my Dad got me hooked on fishing was by taking me to the Cape Cod Canal on Sunday evenings when I was between the ages of 6 and 10 years old.
No we did not jig or plug for big stripers, but we did catch a ton of small bottom fish that kept me occupied and very engaged, despite my young age.
In this post I want to share with you 8 steps for fishing the Canal with young children. However be careful because you just may get the young kids in your life hopelessly addicted to fishing - which is exactly what happened to me!
I saw something amazing yesterday while cruising through the Cape Cod Canal in my boat.
In this post I'll tell you exactly what I saw.
As a teenager my most productive Canal trips happened during the night in July.
It’s the end of July and often the striped bass fishing action at the Cape Cod Canal slows way down. However this has been an interesting season so far at the Big Ditch and there’s reason to believe the fishing might actually get better as August approaches.
Right now I feel you will have an excellent chance of hooking a good fish at the Canal, granted you put in the time and effort. There’s been some good fish taken recently and at odd hours too, like smack dab during the middle of the day, when the sun is high in the sky.
In this post I’ll share with you three ways you can catch a big striper this week fishing the Cape Cod Canal.
A lot of folks were somewhat pessimistic about this past spring at the Cape Cod Canal. Compared to the previous few springs, this past May and June were not quite as productive. The easy "blitz" fishing of years past just didn't materialize as many had hoped and expected.
The good news is that for those who are still sticking it out at the Canal, the fish are finally cooperating.
In this report I will share what I know has been happening recently down at the Big Ditch. If you're able to fish the Canal this weekend and coming week, I feel you will have as good a chance as any of hooking up.
