Cape Cod Bay Fishing Report
Capt. Hap Farrell
I went out looking in Cape Cod Bay today. Just to see if there might be some small schoolies up off the Brewster Flats near Paine’s Creek. I didn’t get that far. My wife, Annie, came along so I told her to look for working birds on the way. Immediately she said, “Like those over there?” I set out an umbrella rig and in seconds had a fish on or should I say four fish on the rig.
In less the forty minutes we probably landed over twenty fish. A few were close to the 28 inch limit but not quite there. So, it is needless to say there are a few fish in the Bay. Maybe a few hundred thousand. I saw working birds from La Salett out to the west as far I as could see, just off the Brewster Flats. They are here!!!
