Cape Cod Canal Striper Fishing: Sunrise Striper

Had a blast fishing first light at the Cape Cod Canal with James & ‪@ChetZingg‬! There weren't a lot of fish breaking this morning and those that were hitting the top were picky. One caught my eye and I sent it... Check out what happened next!

@@nightshiftfishing
is that rod for shore jig or surf
can I use it for shore jig

[@nightshiftfishing]

@@ALSAIBANI the rod is an ODM Jigster. Designed for casting & fishing jigs. It’s 11’ and rated for 4-10oz. Perfect for Canal jigs between 3-6oz. I highly recommend it, well worth the price.

Nice work Matt. Wondering how late you usually fish the canal?

[@nightshiftfishing]

Thanks Joe - I typically fish the Canal right into December. Obviously it slows down considerably…
