Stripers are in at the Cape

Spoke with Rick Angelo this weekend and the stripers are in at the Cape and the larger fish are making their presence known. The seven inch, unweighted pink sluggo is still the ticket. Also outside the Osterville Cut the bluefish have arrived for some awesome sightfishing opportunities along the flats there. You need to use a popper that makes a lot of splashing to incite a hit. Locally, I personally have not been out but have heard the typical reports of schoolies inshore basically all over the sound and some bigger fish being taken at the 11b bouy. If memory serves me correct the BH bouy held some large stripers at this time last year so that might be a spot to try with some bait. My younger brother Rob of Branford Dental Care called with a report of one blackfish and one lobster the other day. He said he was going for the trifecta and hoped to land a bass that evening. I guess anything could be a trifecta these days like a cherrystone, a mussel and a searobin all in one day! Way to go Rob! ...tight lines and screaming drags

Actually, I didn't complete the trifecta but Your nephew Steven caught a 14 inch winter flounder on Saturday.
