July 1st Surfcasters Fishing Report

After a few schools of blitzing Stripers up to 50 pounds moved through the Canal last week, surfcasters began to hope for a turn around this season. However, the past week in the Canal has been slow despite a handful of slot size fish being caught, along with bluefish. Anglers on the Canal report that the key to finding big fish right now is putting time in during the twilight hours of the night. Although the Canal has been slow, there are bigger fish being caught on the beaches in Cape Cod Bay, specifically in Barnstable and Dennis. With the 4th of July coming up this weekend, expect larger than normal crowds down at the Canal, and hopefully a push of fish.
