Paul,
Where do you launch on the Cape? Anywhere near the Morris Point weather station or Chatham beach?

JoeyP-
I am actually launching from Falmouth.
So, I am not as far out on the cape as Chatham. I usually fish the Elizabeth Islands and "the Hump" towards the Vineyard.
Your profile says NJ. Do you ever make it up to the Cape?

Where did he catch it (if you can say).
I am in Cotuit and will be finishing up pre launch work his weekend. I probably will not make it into the water for another week though because I do not think I am allowed to launch on Mothers day.
I may try some casts from the beach at Pomponesset though.

The Fish was caught off West Falmouth.
It was also caught from the beach!
Good luck, let me know if you make out.

Is your friend Andy Nabreski? If so I saw mention of his fish on the On The Water website. If not then another 40" was landed as well.

Woo Woo!
I saw some fish working on the surface at sunset yesterday, just outside of Fiddler's Cove Marina. Unfortunately, I was working and couldn't stop to throw out a line.

They have been here on Cape Ann for the past two weeks! Most are not keepers though. Friday I went out to see if there were mackeral around to catch some live bait and saw stripers schooling past me...right behind them was a pod of dolphins! The dolphins beat me to it!

Hello all-
I just wanted to give an update on my weekends activities.
I caught 2 small keepers Saturday morning.
They were 28&32"inches long.
There are a lot of fish out there, but nobody landed anything big over the weekend.
I'm sure next weeknd will be prime.
Happy monday.

Yes, going out to B Harbor Sunday, possibly Friday afternoon as well. High tide is around noonish.
Wish we luck

Gkel-
Boston Harbor is full of them too!
I work in Charlestown, and at lunch break, I just saw a kid pull a keeper size striper out of the water.
It was right down ny the Navy Yard.
Crazy!
I love this time of year!

I'll be out off the Vineyard this weekend in a 1980 Outrage V-20. I plan on trolling the middle ground or wasque depending on the weather.
Good luck!
