Cape Cod Canal Striper Fishing: Summer 2024 Kick Off - Part 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лип 2024
- Early June 2024 was a grind at the Canal. First light bites were sporadic, quick and far & few between. The late spring season offered little in the way of stripers. A look at the tide chart for the first weekend of summer showed a slack tide right around first light with a low tide at the West End around sunrise. Combined with a storm that came across the state the night prior and a forecast for calm winds and foggy skies the conditions pointed to the ideal conditions for an epic morning bite. Significant amounts of bait and stripers were holding in Buzzards Bay and it would be the flip of a switch before all that life poured into the big ditch. Right on time at quarter past 5am I landed my first striper of the morning, coming in at 38"/20#. It was game on from there. I was fishing with a great crew including Joe, Chet, Rob & Oscar; over the course of the morning two waves of fish moved in with fish in the +40"/+30# class rolling through! This is Part 2 of 2, if you didn't watch part 1, I HIGHLY recommend you check it out! In this video you'll see all of the crew on fish and a couple of Personal Best fish!

Man you guys were on em! I jigged all up and down the canal for 13 hrs on Sunday for a schoolie 😂
Thanks! This was a great morning for sure. Your report is much more like almost every other day I’ve had this season… Hopefully things pick up soon! 🎣🐟
Great video and congrats to Chet!
Thanks Mike! 🎣🐟
Matt, that’s awesome - standing around ready to move and then “The BANG! FISH ON”… The white stick shad was my go to lure for 3 years but has not been hitting for me in 2+ years…. Chet, nice fish!
Joe - same here. I’ve carried the stick shad consistently and always rotate it in, that approach paid off on this morning for sure! 🎣🐟
Now that’s a morning 🎉
For sure man!! It was a great morning - they’ve been far and few between this season at the ditch… 🎣🐟
Such a good morning! Always a good time with the crew. Thanks for the awesome footage, Matt. My daughter loved watching this with me on the big screen tonight.
Chet - always a pleasure to share a tide with you! Congrats again on your PB. I’m so glad I was there to see you break into the 40’s and get it all on video! Wanted to make sure I did you PB justice with this video, glad you and your daughter enjoyed it. 🎣🐟
Nice fish, Chet. Congrats on your PB. Well deserved, brother👏 Good job boys.🤙
Thanks brotha!
Thanks Jeff!! 🎣🐟
Omg-what an awesome morning fishing with the team😊👍. All of us catching fish in rapid fire! Great video 🔥
You know it Rob - an incredible morning!! Fish after fish in both of the waves of fish! 🎣🐟
Great video reminds me of last year July 8. I kick myself in the butt for leaving when the first pod went through. Should have waited the second pod of fish were bigger. Congrats to @chet for that PB 🎣
Thanks bro!
This morning and the videos of it definitely remind me of the July 8th/9th weekend last year as well. Glad you made it back and got into the action! 🎣🐟
My wife yelled at me last weekend because we were running late to our friends cape house and I pulled over at the herring run motel to make a couple casts. No action but gotta stay committed haha. Good stuff, glad the fishing is good. Waters around Boston have been solid
I admire the commitment!! Nicely done!! 😂👏🏻🎣🐟
Nice Video Matt pretty good action I miss the Canal 🎣🎣👌👌👊👊
Thanks Andis!! This was a special morning, the norm this year has not been great in reality… Tough year so far. 🎣🐟
