Fishing tips for Cape Cod Bay!

One of our members has found an amazing Blues location at "The Path" down by Wellfleet and Truro and was getting hookups almost every other cast. Every other location hit that day was dead.

His advice is to get a leadcore trolling setup and use the 7" Yo-Zuri HydroSquirt in Red with a Gold bottom at a speed of between 3-6 knots and about 20-30 feet of water. He's also had luck with the same lure without leadcore when they are feeding near the top but the fish seem to be deeper lately. The only other lure that has worked for for him is casting a 5oz Wounded Herring but no where near the HydroSquirt's production. It tends to troll too close to the surface, so it is best to cast into them with it.

The Hydro Squirt is available at Goose Hummock in Orleans.

Have some advice? Shoot me an email at mcarrick@freedomboatclub.com and I will post it here.

Good Luck!
