Fishing the Cape Cod Canal on a foggy morning for blitzing Striped Bass 

Most definitely, A shared feeling amongst fishermen. It is great to see the physical representation of all the hours you put in.

Thank you, sir, Look out for Albie content coming soon!

Thank you, stay tight!

Thank you!

Sure is! Thank you for watching

Thank You Oskee! I love your content and hope to share a tide with you one day.

@@bigblitzsmedia3114 oh yea bro we can share a tide when ever. We always meeting people and telling them to come fish with us. Your welcome when ever. We park cape side under Bourne. Come over when ever

Thank you for your kind words. The last fish was challenging, I never had a fish pull me into structure and get caught like that. Fishing tests your patience and sometimes that means taking the extra time to ensure a fish swims away strong.

Thank you, brother!

Thanks, I was actually using hockey tape. I almost lost a finger when a boat caught my line and I idiotically cupped the spool. Not happening again.

I appreciate it!

Thank you, sir!

Thanks for watching! I am using the Gomexus 45mm but the 47mm should work too if you want a bigger knob.

Glad you enjoyed the video! I use a 230lb Spro power barrel swivel and connect the braid and fluorocarbon via a uni knot. If I were to use a straight-line connection I would use a double uni knot or Alberto knot.

@@bigblitzsmedia3114 awesome! Thanks 🙏

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Will Do!

I purchase most of my gear from Red Tops Sporting Goods. It is located on the Mass side next to the railroad bridge. They are having a spring sale starting (March 23rd - 30th) perfect opportunity to purchase gear for the upcoming season. For online option (sale runs from March 31st - April 6th): redtopinc.com

Thanks, i was planning to go there. Ive heard about that one from a friend. I will go there then thanks

I like bringing the fish in fast because you get a much stronger release from not tiring them out too much.

Listen closely to the drag pulling as I set the hook. That magic swimmer also had a hook I haven't replaced in two seasons so it isn't sharp.

The power knob is a Gomexus 45mm. The 47mm knob will also fit if you want something a bit bigger.

I’m one of those weird cross dominance people. I write with my left and do technical stuff with my left hand. However, I use my right hand for anything with power like throwing or kicking a ball. I started fishing at 5 years old it’s a hard habit to break now or to relearn😂.

Likewise, the "canal rig" has too many moving parts for a fish to securely get a good hook set. I find that I drop more fish with a single hook on the front. Others would argue that they strike at the head and don't make a difference. At the end of the day, fishing is confidence, and having that second hook and not dropping a fish helps me sleep at night 😂. However, if there are plenty of fish around I don't mind putting on a single hook and dropping fish.

Two hooks for me, no need for 3

This is Cape Cod, MA.

In this specific video I have 50 pound power pro. I have since changed it to 40 pounds Daiwa J braid x8 grand for my jigging setup and 30 pounds on my plugging setup.

Whats your rod specs? Oz wise?

@@gkhin1990 For this specific rod I used for plugging, it is an 11 feet ODM DNA rated 1-5 ounces.

Definitely have to cross it off your bucket list.

It's an ODM DNA 11 feet 1-5 ounces.

Sure thing I’ll tell the hook to puncture and the fish to bite harder meanwhile pleading “please” as I set the hook. Also might want to ride with one hand on the bike cause that beer seems too good to drop. Friendly advice taken.

​@@bigblitzsmedia3114😂😂😂😂

⁠​⁠​⁠@@bigblitzsmedia3114it’s to bad you can’t take a little advice without firing back a stupid comment. The fish biting harder has nothing to do with your ability to set a hook properly, all you need from the bass is the hit. And the drag is slipping because it’s to loose, if your drag slips during a hook set it should be tightened. And if you know you have dull old hooks, change them. Two of the three excuses for not setting hook are under your control. Maybe next time be appreciative someone watched your video and thought to try to give some helpful advice.

@@johnfinn3787There’s a difference between friendly advice and keyboard warriors finding something to nitpick about. “Learn”, like I don’t know how to set a hook. Sure there is always room for improvement and I’m not doubting it. To say that I’m not appreciative of those who view my video would be far from the truth, I take time and try to respond to every comment even if it rubs me the wrong way. Commenting on any platform with no human emotion and face to face interaction can come across the wrong way and seem more malicious than intended. My comment was not intended to be an excuse rather a absurd comedic and sarcastic reply. The magic swimmer is a plug I rarely use and that’s why I thought not to change the hooks. My drag not being properly set is false as you can see with the other three fish, I didn’t touch it. I stand by what I said and if you don’t agree feel free to dislike the video and don’t watch my content.

​@bigblitzsmedia3114 Your drag is set just about perfect. Can't people see the pressure you are putting on those fish, with only a little drag slipping. If drag is adjusted correctly, you should not have to change it while fighting a fish. Great video, looking forward to seeing more. Subscribed

Definitely not the biggest I have ever caught but decent size. The biggest was that last fish which was close to 40 inches and mid-twenties based on guestimation.

But local businesses are enjoying it!

@@webmossRight! And I’m sure Mass Dept of Wildlife is not complaining about the $$$ made on permits, from out of town and out of states

The canal was combat fishing before RU-vid. Only the strong can fish the canal. Take your snoopy rod and cry about your special canal somewhere else

@timbertuggy2398 I have been fishing the Canal since the 80s, you fool. You are a perfect example of why the cape cod canal is not the same anymore. And no, the Cape Cod canal was not combat fishing before youtube. People actually had respect for each other. So go be woke somewhere else, since you don't like facts over feelings.

@@timbertuggy2398 Relax Francis, you’re probably one the a holes that brings his pistol and all camoed out, the canal was a special place at one time, douchebags act like hoa presidents gfy

Roger that.

What part of the canal you at?
