Fishing Report: Laura-Jay Weekend Striper Report

Saturday kicked off Striper season with our first Bass Charter of the year. Great group of guys in from Hartford. New schools of Stripers are pushing into the bay daily. We had good action on the shoals Saturday, lots of schoolies on top and good #’s of 30?-34? underneath. Cape Cod Bay is filled with Mackeral and Whiting right now – the big fish should be moving in on these any day now (although there are already some ones here already).

Sunday was a fun day, as we took the next generation (Jack and Kate) out for some Mackeral fishing. The kids had a great time bailing macs, and they liked the fact that they were helping to get ready for tuna season by catching the bait.

And yes, the rumors are true – a Giant Tuna was taken on Stellwagon this week, and many more have been seen. Should be a great June fishery this year.

Good luck out there,

Captain Don
