Fishing the Cape Cod Canal | S16 E4 

Who else is watching this during quarantine? 2020??

GIVE IT UP FOR THE EASTCOST CAPE FISHERMEN 👍 🇺🇸👊

If you don't know the guy DO NOT STAND 8' AWAY FROM HIM, ESPICALLY DOWN CURRENT. Last year I get on the rocks at 1am. For a 5am turn. At 430am 6 amigos show up 4 stand 10 feet from me, down current and the other 2 are 8 feet up current from me. I turn to the guy closest to me and I say , I'm going to hit you. He looks at me and says are you threatening me? I said, I'm using an 11 foot rod and you're standing 8 feet from me, I'm not threatening you, basic math is. Is not that the crowds suck , it's lack of respect .

Great job highlighting good etiquette and catch and release. Very important topics these days with the state of the fishery and the impact of social media on a place like the CCC.

Roy!!!! Thats a good dude right there... Ive run into Roy Leyva at multiple venues over the yrs from the trout ponds of Plymouth to the canal. Always quick with a smile, and quick to offer me some kind of advice to advance my knowledge. I gotta say its pretty cool to see him on OTW bc I knew him long before he got where he is today. I learned the old cast-a-bubble technique from him for picky trout at a tiny 1.5 acre trout pond in Norwell. To this day, one of my go to techniques. Thx Roy

Very well done video! I love the canal!

On my way to Scusset beach tomorrow with the family for Father’s Day!! So pumped!!

Great episode

Gotta love the canal!

Awesome video!

He's right. If you're respectful, most of the people are friendly.

Such a good video

For many decades I’ve witnessed many dear from both sides at change of seasons. A good sportsman could double his yield with the right equipment .Add a Remington to your tackle box. And a couple hundred in fines.

this is great..i have a house on the cape and always wanted to know about fishing the ditch

My home away from home! I mostly stay in the dark to avoid the crowds and take more big fish jigging the late nights! Some amazing blitz action in daylight but to many ppl for my likes! Not that u won't find me tossing pencils to them from time to time!

Makes me want to come to The Cape

One of my favorite places to be in the entire world.

I have a love-hate relationship with the canal. I love the ditch because I’ve caught some really high-quality fish there. I hate it with a passion because I have left at least a couple hundred pounds of jigs on the bottom. I think if you combine my losses with the losses of everyone else there must be hundreds of tons of lead down the bottom. Riddle me this though? how are you able to use live tasty tinker mackerel? You can’t be throwing a Sabiki although it might work but IDK. Did I miss you guys dragging a live well around with you. I have to imagine fish all day.

8 foot popping tuna rods would brilliant and shore Jigging rods

The pan Slammer 3 is sufficient the Penn long cast is sufficient

What is the best months in year catching bass there?

@On The Water Media is this the Canal not to far from Hyannis Port MA? I go fishing up there at least 3 times a year.

Yea etiquette and giving people space is everything especially with the current and please practice catch and release if we want to keep this fishery going. Respect goes along way, and it seems it has been lost among fisherman 🎣🎣🎣

I thought this was about fishing the Cape Cod Canal, not two guys repeatedly saying "Nice fish, Steve" or "Nice fish, Kevin." I fished that canal years ago as a young kid, following none of the precious little "advice" they offered - and I caught fish. In fact, if you put bait (even worms) in the water, it's almost impossible to not catch fish.

Is this in spring 2019 or 2018?

Was there tonite. Nobody caught anything.

Dont wanna tell bout them canal swimmers u throwin huh?😎

I’ve lived here my whole fourteen years of life and not once have I fished at the canal

Nobody ever chunks baits there? I’m from Jersey and never been there.

I’m so very confused as to why this late summer fishing session was uploaded in February.

Who else is ready for 2019 stripper action?!

Why are no boats fishing the canal ..... are they allowed ? Don’t see them in video other than driving by

2022 was the worst season at the canel. Many old timers blame it on the hot weather..

Who’s here because of EPF?

is it all possible the old fella was pinching a loaf while in the water. i mean ive been on the banks and theres not too many bathrooms available when you get far enough down the bike trail........just sayin

divorced my wife of 15 years because of this place and zero regrets.
