Cape Cod Fishing Report – July 22, 2021 Jeff at Canal Bait and Tackle in Sagamore says the fishing picked up this morning and the east end of the Canal has been fishing pretty well. Mackerel and peanut bunker have been showing with squid mixed in at night. Jim at Eastman’s Sport & Tackle in Falmouth says the bass fishing is slow locally. There are a few bass coming from the Elizabeth Islands at night on eels. There are also reports of bass being jigged up from Quicks and Robinson’s Hole. The hooter had some bonito last week, but they’ve disappeared, and the boats have been catching black sea bass and bluefish. Bluefin have moved to the northeast corner of the claw. There aren’t too many tuna over 42–they’re mostly 28 to 40 inches. White marlin have been popping up in the same waters. There are big tuna at Crab Ledge in the 80 to 95-inch range for boats live lining mackerel. Buzzards Bay has a lot of small fluke and some keepers once in a while. The Canal has been slow the past few days, but the full moon tides could bring some good fishing.
