The best guides in Cape Cod

There’s truly nothing better than a summer escape to Cape Cod, the best fishing destination in the Northeast. The Cape is surrounded by water- the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Cod Bay, Nantucket Sound, and Vineyard Sound all make for excellent destinations for your next angling adventure.

The prime time to fish in the Cape is late Spring to early Fall, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t fish year-round! There’s meaning behind the name of the popular peninsula- Cape Cod was named by an English explorer in 1602 who spotted an abundance of codfish at the shore. Both Haddock and Cod can be found year-round if you can brave the cold.

The world-famous trophy Stripers come out in May, with October being the finale of the Striped Bass migration. On an inshore trip, expect to spot all sorts of species including Bluefish, Black Sea Bass, Tautog, Fluke, and Scup. You can even try catching Stripers on the fly! Offshore, exciting opportunities await for massive Bluefin Tuna, Haddock, Cod, and Pollock.

Cape Cod hosts many unique opportunities to fish like never before- try surfcasting and fly casting with world-renowned angler and Guidesly guide Ron Arra for a challenge to improve your casting skills! No matter how you spend your days, the natural scenic beauty of the Cape will leave you wishing for more.

On your off-days, day trips to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket are a great choice for summertime fishing and exploring. Provincetown is right next door, known for an eclectic scene of art and culture, and whale watching sightseeing cruises are abundant. Whatever you decide to do, you can’t go wrong visiting Cape Cod.
