Over the course of its life, a striped bass consumes a massive variety of forage.
The soft structure on a sandy beach provides the perfect place for striped bass to lie in wait for easy meals to wash by.
There's no place like the Cape Cod Canal where extreme tides and current call for specific lures.
Maximize the potential for catching more, and bigger striped bass at night by packing smart and packing light.
When the hunt for big stripers begins to feel like work, go catch some schoolies and soothe the soul.
Fishing through slack tide is unlikely to bring fast and abundant action, but it's a brief window when the largest bass of the bunch will feed advantageously.
Take photos of your catch that are easier on both you and the fish.
A journal of your fishing trips can do much more than help you catch more fish.
Eliminate slack and keep your lure still in the strike zone to consistently catch stripers just off the beach.
