Migrating Stripers from NJ, VA have arrived officially at Cape Cod...looking at the weekend of May 16-17 for a Bass Pond Saltwater Rodeo get together to do some shore fly-fishing... looking at possible Barnstable Harbor (off of Scudder Lane and Rendevous Lane) or nearby Sandy Neck Beach (7miles of beach) ...High tide is 4:45am and 5:29 pm on the 16th and 5:40 am and 6:19 pm on the 17th of May. We did this several years back and had a blast. Suggest we fish 3-5 hours on either or both days around high tide time. This is prime time of the year before summer parking rules are enforced with parking stickers

For those who have not tried this , it is a lot of fun and beautiful scenery. Great photo opprotunity for the website to share with...Waders, a good 9 foot 8wt
or 9wt fly rod with intermediate or sink tip fly line, salt water leaders with clouser, deceivers or sand eel imitations are the flies of choice. Stripping
basket is optional. Hopefully the wind will be at our back for easier casting. Also if anyone has alternate suggestions for this event, please jump in...
moving to find where the bait located is the key to success...so we may move if one area doesn't produce...


So far Alec and myself are interested in tussling with some strong fighting stripers...Do we have any other member who are interested. Looking to do this
inexpensively, Dun-kin Donuts for coffee, MacDonald's for lunch or supper to make things easy...How many other members are interested?
Let's get a headcount...
