Striped Bass: These bad boys are the rock stars of inshore fishing around here. Stripers can grow to monster sizes - we're talking 50+ pounds! They're known for their powerful runs and acrobatic jumps, making them a blast to catch. Spring through fall is prime time for stripers, with the bigger fish typically showing up as the water warms. There's nothing quite like the thrill of battling a big striper in the surf.
Bluefish: If stripers are the rock stars, bluefish are the wild bunch of the inshore scene. These toothy critters are pure aggression on fins. They'll hit just about anything that moves and fight like crazy all the way to the boat. Blues usually show up in force by early summer and stick around into fall. They're not just fun to catch - they're also delicious when prepared right. Nothing beats a fresh bluefish on the grill after a day on the water!

Bluefish are the bad boys of Cape Cod waters - aggressive, toothy, and always ready for a fight. These streamlined predators typically run 3-10 pounds, though monsters over 20 pounds aren't unheard of. Look for blues churning up the surface as they attack bait schools, especially in late summer. They'll hit just about anything shiny or flashy, making them a blast on light tackle. Blues are known for their savage strikes and acrobatic leaps once hooked. The meat has a rich, full flavor that's great for smoking or grilling. One local trick: try trolling with surgical tube lures to really get them fired up. Blues can be found from the beaches to offshore, often mixing with stripers. Just watch those teeth when unhooking - they've earned their fierce reputation. For pure action and excitement, it's hard to beat a day chasing bluefish around the Cape.
Striped bass are the rockstars of Cape Cod fishing. These powerful swimmers can reach 40+ pounds, with distinctive dark stripes running along their sides. You'll find them cruising near shore structures, jetties, and rips from spring through fall. Early mornings and evenings are prime time, when stripers feed aggressively in cooler surface waters. Anglers love the thrill of battling a big striper - they put up an impressive fight on the line. The meat is also prized for its sweet, flaky texture. To boost your chances, try live eels or chunked mackerel as bait. And keep an eye out for birds working the water - that often signals a striper feeding frenzy below. Whether you're a seasoned pro or first-timer, hooking into one of these iconic fish is always exciting. Just remember to check current size and catch limits before you head out.
