Great trip to the Cape

[greenhornet73]

Spent last week in Cape Cod and rented a kayak to fish from as usual.  Reports were terrible so I headed out rigged up with only a big Zara spook and a pair of pliers just in case.  Saw a few swirls in shallow 3’ water so began casting around.  I caught so many striped bass from that day on that every one of my treble hooks was eventually ripped off the lure.  This was a saltwater Spook with stainless hardware and I only fished 3 days for under 2 hrs each time since this was a family vacation.  Landed 29 stripers and lost more than half that number besides. Many bigger 24-27” schoolies with a dozen slot size and bigger.  Don’t listen to reports if you want to do some Striper fishing this fall, they are certainly around in good numbers.
