Big Striped Bass on Topwater - My First Trip to the Cape Cod Canal
Ойын-сауық
THANKS FOR 10,000 VIEWS EVERYONE! First one of my videos to hit that milestone! If you like this video, check out the rest of my channel, I think you'll like it. Tight lines y'all! --Andrew of Seven Stripe Fishing
Yesterday, I put in my first serious effort to catch striped bass at the Cape Cod Canal. I was on the banks of the canal at the crack of dawn to see if I could raise any big bass on a pencil popper.
Get Tight Fishing KZread channel creator Hayden G. helped me out by supplying me with a rod beefy enough for the canal, and bringing me to a productive location.
It was incredibly kind of him to show me the ropes, and you should check out his KZread Channel. He posts regularly about the Cape Cod Canal and surrounding areas!
Bass in the low 20-pound range were crushing my pencil popper! It was crazy to see them swipe and explode on the pencil popper and it thrashed on the surface. Really an addictive feeling!
It was an extremely fun day to say the least. This was a great first experience, and I'll definitely be back for more in the future. However, I'm still going to be spending most of my time on the beach in search of big bass.
Until next time everyone! Thanks for watching!

Awesome fishing for sure!
Appreciate catching stripers in your "first trip". Some of us have fished the canal for years before catching our first fish. Most challenging place to fish in the world! Usually get a couple now, but it took years to catch stripers almost every time.
Thanks for the cool video and I appreciate the nice release of the fish. Its nice to see people respect the thing our whole hobby revolves around.

Thanks for the support man! And I couldn't agree more. The more breeding striped bass in the ocean, the more bass we have to catch now, and in the future! Tight lines!
Totally thunbs up.!! NICE VIDEOS!!!👍
Awesome......
Good Fishing dude! Would love to lay into some on topwater someday!
Nice video. I love how you flatten the barbs on your hooks and release your fish. We need more people like that!

Thanks for the kind words man! Definitely get more gratification in catching them, rather than eating them

Hello there. For the Cape Cod Canal needs some Fishing Licence ?
2:00 yeah long rod problem...hard to reach fish to land. It's cost me about a 7 pound walleye and close to a 20 pound musky this year.

Awesome video, you’d bring em in easier with better gear. Just saying cause I used to have similar set up.
Awesome video!you should get a finger protecter or take medical tape and tape your finger so it doesn't hurt as bad when you cast that braid
He almost took you for a swim... Those canal rocks are so damn slippery...

This is an Offshore Angler Powerstick Surf borrowed from a friend. Offshore Angler is Bass Pro Shops generic brand, but it did the job just fine!

The reel was a Penn Conflict 6000, and the rod was an Offshore Angler Power Stick Surf Rod. Not my usual outfit, but it was great and performed well!

Seven Stripe Fishing I have a similar combo, except my rod is the lighter, blue version and I have a Battle ll 5000. Although it seems light, its handled some 30+ pound fish very well in all the current.
