The early fishing on the south side of Cape Cod has been incredible! We're seeing a lights-out bite with several huge fish ranging from 28 inches up to the low 40-inch range. While the weather hasn't been the most cooperative lately, the fish certainly have been, making for some fantastic catches. It appears that another epic summer is in store for Cape Cod.

Our first Striper trip of the season was a huge success with Matt Whalen and crew aboard the St. Pete today. There were a variety of sizes from schoolies to slot fish to oversized around 38". The St. Pete Weighted Hoochies were on fire! Thanks, Matt for a great trip. We trolled St. Pete Hoochies for the first 6-8 fish and then switched over to snapping wire when the tide changed. Once we had our fill of that it was time to switch again. This time we went with small 4" weighted hoochies casting into the rips. Great trip, great weather, and a great group of guys.

We went out the other day and the water temperature was around 48 degrees. Squid should arrive the minute the waters hit 50. We have open trips available. Book an 8-hour trip for up to 4 people. We leave the dock at Bass River Marina at 7 am and it's a quick trip to Hyannis. Bring a bucket and some old clothes and get ready to get inked. Trips start next Monday, April 30th but it's a very short season, usually only about 2 weeks long so don't delay.
