This spring, On The Water Publisher Chris Megan and Editor Jimmy Fee headed out early one morning in search of some Cape Cod weakfish. After being mostly absent from Massachusetts waters in recent years, weakfish have returned in surprising numbers, and Jimmy and Chris had a great morning catching these beautiful fish. Look for the full episode to air during Season 11 of On The Water TV in 2014.

…we caught a few nice Weakfish last week around the flats & docks along Bass River. It was during the cinder worm spawn. I got them to hit a 3″ piece of red-wine colored Gulp Sand worm dragged behind a clear bobber. Beautiful fish! I hope to see more of them this summer….
