Since there doesnt appear to be a 1990 Cape Cod note, I'll start one. I was on Pleasant Bay this past Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Flounder fishing seemed to be pretty good. I saw several boats with good sized fish. Lots of people were fishing the flats in little pleasant bay and the area south of Strong Island. (South = towards the break (?)) It wasnt clear whether they were plugging for bass or looking for fluke. Bass fishing from the shore was pretty active at Nickerson Neck and I marked lots of bait in the channel between the neck and Strong Island. The folks at Ryder's Marina mentioned a 40lb bass and I spoke to several people who caught schoolies. No sign of blue fish and no sign of the seals.

Yo, I was down the Cape for the Forth of July and the Bluefish were hitting at a number of beaches. I grabbed a few at Sunken Meadown in Eastham and heard of a few more being taken all up the coast. Most of the action has been on the Bay side- so I was told. The blues I caught weren't as big as the ones we usually catch. Then again we usually fish during Aug-Oct. I did get a chance to fish the Ocean side looking for a monster Bass at Lacountes Hollow in Wellfleet, but I did not land any. I did however have a huge hit using a live eel. Ripped the damn eel right off! Have you ever tried to put a hook through an eels head? They are very tough, plus they are not the easiest things to handle. No More hits after that- the waves were 6 to 8 feet which makes it a little tough to fish. Well I'll be cabk down in August fishing all night looking for that 50lb stripper! Wildman |
