Premium 3-Hour Inshore Fishing on Upgraded Boat

Cape Cod's 3-Hour Inshore Fishing Adventure

Ready for a quick fishing fix on Cape Cod? Our 3-hour inshore trip is perfect for anglers looking to sneak in some quality time on the water without dedicating a full day. We've just upgraded our 17-foot boat with a Minn Kota Terrova trolling motor, giving us an edge in stealth and precision when approaching those honey holes. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting your feet wet, this trip offers a taste of Cape Cod's legendary inshore fishing scene.

Trip Overview

Hop aboard our nimble 17-footer for a fast-paced morning or afternoon on Cape Cod's inshore waters. We'll zip out to prime fishing spots, taking advantage of our new trolling motor to slip into tight spaces where the big ones hide. This trip is all about maximizing your time on the water – we'll have lines in quickly and keep moving to find the action. It's an ideal option for solo anglers or anyone looking to squeeze in some fishing between other Cape activities. Just bring your sense of adventure, and we'll handle the rest.

What to Expect on the Water

Our inshore waters are teeming with life, and we'll use every trick in the book to get you on fish. With our new Minn Kota Terrova, we can hover silently over structure or creep along shorelines without spooking the fish. We might throw soft plastics around jetties, work topwater lures in the early morning, or bounce jigs off the bottom – it all depends on what's biting. The beauty of inshore fishing is the variety – one minute you could be casting to stripers in the surf, the next you're drifting for fluke in deeper channels. We'll adapt our techniques to the conditions and the fish's mood, keeping things exciting throughout the trip.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Cape Cod's inshore waters are a fish magnet, plain and simple. The mix of sandy beaches, rocky structure, and nutrient-rich estuaries creates a perfect environment for a variety of gamefish. Our compact 3-hour trip lets you sample this diverse fishery without committing to a full day. It's also a great way to learn new techniques or sharpen your skills with personalized attention from your guide. Many of our regulars use these short trips to scout conditions before booking longer outings. Plus, with our newly added trolling motor, we can access spots that other boats simply can't reach, giving you an edge in the pursuit of that trophy catch.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Striped Bass: The crown jewel of Cape Cod inshore fishing, stripers are hard-fighting and delicious. These fish can range from schoolies in the 20-inch range to trophy-sized monsters pushing 50 inches or more. They're structure-oriented predators, so we'll target them around jetties, rips, and along drop-offs. Stripers start showing up in May and stick around into the fall, with peak action usually in June and July. Nothing beats the thrill of a big striper crushing a topwater lure at dawn.

Bluefish: When the blues are in town, hold onto your rod! These toothy marauders are pure muscle and attitude. They'll hit just about anything that moves and put up a savage fight. Blues typically show up in June and hang around through September. We often find them in open water chasing bait schools, which makes for some exciting run-and-gun fishing. Their aggressive nature makes them a blast on light tackle, and they're a perfect target for anglers who love fast-paced action.

Fluke (Summer Flounder): Don't let their flat profile fool you – fluke are ambush predators with a serious appetite. We typically target these tasty bottom-dwellers from late spring through summer. Fluke fishing is all about finesse and reading the bottom. We'll drift over sandy areas, working jigs or live bait near the seafloor. It's a more relaxed style of fishing compared to chasing stripers or blues, but landing a doormat fluke is always a thrill. Plus, they're one of the best-eating fish in our waters.

Black Sea Bass: These structure-loving fish are a favorite among light tackle enthusiasts. Sea bass typically show up in May and provide steady action through the summer. We'll target them around reefs, wrecks, and rocky bottom areas. They're aggressive feeders and will readily hit jigs, soft plastics, or bait. While they might not grow as large as some of our other species, what they lack in size they make up for in numbers and taste. A limit of sea bass makes for some fantastic eating.
