Cape Cod Early Season Report for Striped Bass and Tuna




The early season bite report for striped bass is easy, big and many. The fly rod fisherman has not seen fishing like the 2009 start for many years. Stripers from 28 to 40 inches are available in numerous locations around Cape Cod.

After four weeks of guiding on the Cape, I can say it is wonderful to see the excellent fishing for striped bass with flies. The season is young, so lets hope it continues to be good. My first fish striped bass caught in Maine on June 4 was 30 inches. That's a much better start than last year.
