Winter is here at the Cape

Old man winter arrived here early this year. Last year at this time I was doing quite a bit of fresh water fishing in the local ponds. I did manage to fish last Saturday at Big Cliff and got my first two trout of the winter season both on bait. They were small rainbows. My pursuit of stripers has ended for the year. I ended up with only 765 bass which was way down from my 1400+ fish in 2006. Very disappointing season for me. I will continue to fish the ponds all winter either on the ice or open water. I would love to find some nice fat yellow perch through the ice. Stay tuned.
