Thanks for watching! It was definitely a day I will never forget. I hope that fish is still swimming around out there somewhere. By now he'd probably be over 50 pounds.

Such an epic catch… Nice touch on the fly too

I am from the other side of the country, the Pacific Northwest. YT just suggested this video. I was just back at Cape Cod and was lucky enough to catch two, my first Stripers on a fly from a boat that my wife and I chartered. I got them on a 6 wt and on a fly that works in my home waters (we don't have Stripers here but we do have several species we can fish for in saltwater). I did not measure them but I estimate they were 26" or so. The next day I got two from the beach (Atlantic side). These were about 18" or so, also on a fly and the same 6 wt but a smaller version of the same pattern. I can definitely see why they got their reputation. I'm so lucky my wife is totally supportive of my fishing but we are also in a different phase of life. We've been retired for five years. Tight lines! I'll be back!

Yes there are definitely tons of huge great whites around, and I do think about them while out there on the kayak and when snorkeling.

Nice, Phlip Wilson would be proud. Heading there next year for stripes, around end of July first week of August. Hopefully fishing for them is good around the Cape somewhere. Ill be bringing all types of tackle, including fly gear. Looking for some local knowledge to get introduced to some scaley critters. Any help would be appreciated. Great fish brother.

Sounds like you have a great trip planned Vern! Late July/August is a great time for striper fishing here on Cape. Usually the canal, Cape Cod Bay, and the Outer Cape will have some nice bass at that time of the year. We have a great community with lots of helpful resources over at myfishingcapecod.com which you might want to check out. LMK! Tight lines 🎣

Watching this is like an updated version of the classic; "The Old Man and the Sea" by Hemingway.. "The Young Man and the Sea" .... Keep your hand on the grip! Quickest way to snap your rod is to try to put more presure by reaching above the grip. Always try to pull big fish off balance, by pulling them to the side, when they adjust, then pull them to the other side, you could even work that cow to the beach. Please Be Well, and Stay Strong PS. There are plenty of How to fight, and land big fish on the fly. BTW- That cow had to be around 44 pounds. GO YOU!!!

@@MyFishingCapeCod Good Sir, you are graciously kind! After WW II my father worked as a caretaker of a local beach Here in The Forgotten Borough of NYC. I was conceived, and raised in the house on that beach. I spent the earliest years of my life as the feral prince of Midland Beach, with a ruby spaniel freely roaming that beach. When my mother wanted to know where I was, she’d wisely call “Debbie” and the cocker would pick up her head and bark a reply. More than likely my mother would find me asleep in an old 16’ wooden skiff my father kept on the side of the house. Being the son, of a son, of a fisherman, fishing is in my D.N.A. I have been beached for the last dozen years taking care of my folks in these final years. With their passing, I decided to pick the fly rod and head for the beach. “By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.” Confucius At almost 70 to update myself, method 2 is my only realistic choice. So, I took myself back to school @ You Tube University! That is where I found you! Orvis has a very good series on “Long Rods”, and “Salt Water.” Please Be Well, and Stay Strong, I am looking forward to your future uploads! Captain Bill Bulla

It was nuts! The rod is a Sage 9 weight, 990-4, 9 foot, #9 line www.themightyfish.com/products/copy-of-sage-x-4-piece-fly-rod?variant=12358822953073. LMK if you have any other questions. 🎣

The part of your fly line that gives it strength is the mono or braided core, not the polymer float or sink coating. Don’t worry about that for strength unless it gets to the core. Nice fish. I catch Stripers on the fly in freshwater in Texas.

Life is great! Well said. And yes I try to avoid the great whites, but they do frequent some of the areas I fish. With that said, you'll never catch me kayak fishing around Monomoy or along the Outer Beach!

Nice fish! However, it is highly unlikely that fish survived after you released it. It was kept out of the water FAR too long in the interest of making a video. Past 15 seconds out of the water survival is at best only 50%. That fish was far greater than 15 seconds.
