Cape Cod Inshore Fishing: Half-Day Grady White

Half Day Inshore: Cape Cod's Fishing Paradise

Ready to hit the water for some serious Cape Cod fishing action? Our Half Day Inshore trip aboard the Three Buoys is your ticket to a top-notch angling experience. This 25-foot Grady White center console is a fishing machine, designed to get you to the hottest spots fast and keep you comfortable while you're hauling in the big ones.

Trip Overview

Picture this: You're cruising out of the harbor at a cool 30-35 mph, salt spray in your face, and the anticipation building. With room for up to four anglers, you and your buddies will have plenty of elbow room to work those rods. We've got twin 200 HP Yamaha outboards pushing us along, so you know we'll reach the fish before they know what hit 'em. Whether you're itching to drop lines near local wrecks for seabass and scup, or you're keen to cast into the churning tide rips off Chatham, we've got you covered. Heck, if the bite's hot over by Martha's Vineyard or the Elizabeth Islands, that's where we'll point the bow. Just remember, we're flexible – if you're having a blast and want to extend the trip, we can add extra hours at $125 a pop.

What to Expect on the Water

Let's talk fishing, folks. On this trip, we're all about versatility. The Three Buoys is rigged and ready for whatever Cape Cod throws our way. We'll start the day by checking the latest bite reports and weather conditions. That's how we decide where to wet our lines. Maybe we'll be jigging for bottom-dwellers one minute and sight-casting to stripers the next. Our crew knows these waters like the back of their hand, so we'll adapt on the fly to put you on the fish. We've got all the gear you need – rods, reels, bait, and tackle. Just bring your A-game and maybe a lucky hat.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's a reason our half-day trips are a hit with both local sharpies and out-of-towners. First off, that Grady White is a dream to fish from. Stable as a rock, even when the chop kicks up. Plus, with those twin Yamahas, we can cover some serious ground. That means more time fishing, less time running. And let's not forget the variety – one day you might be muscling keeper seabass out of a wreck, the next you could be battling a chunky striper in the rips. It's never the same trip twice, and that's what keeps folks coming back for more.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Black Sea Bass: These tasty bottom-dwellers are a Cape Cod staple. They love structure, so we'll often target them around wrecks and reefs. Sea bass put up a great fight for their size, and they're downright delicious on the dinner table. Best fishing is usually May through October, with some real lunkers showing up in the summer months.

Striped Bass: The crown jewel of Northeast inshore fishing. Stripers are why many anglers make the pilgrimage to Cape Cod. These fish can grow to over 50 pounds, and they'll test your skills whether you're tossing plugs in the surf or live-lining mackerel in deep water. The spring and fall runs are legendary, but you can find good fishing all summer long if you know where to look.

Scup (Porgy): Don't let their size fool you – scup are a blast to catch and even better to eat. These pan-sized battlers school up around structure and can provide non-stop action when you find them. Kids especially love catching scup, and they're perfect for a fish fry. Look for them from May through October, with peak season in the summer.

Bluefish: When the blues are running, hold onto your rod! These toothy critters are pure muscle and attitude. They'll hit just about anything that moves and fight like crazy all the way to the boat. Bluefish typically show up in May and stick around through October. They're great fun on light tackle and make for some mean fish tacos.

Time to Book Your Spot

Alright, let's wrap this up. Our Half Day Inshore trip on the Three Buoys is your gateway to some of the best fishing Cape Cod has to offer. We're talking about a versatile, action-packed adventure that can have you targeting multiple species in a single outing.
