Cape Cod Canal Wednesday: Slack Water Prime Time for Stripers and Blues

About this episode

# Cape Cod Canal Fishing Report - Artificial Lure Here

Hey folks, Artificial Lure coming at you with your Wednesday morning fishing report from Cape Cod Canal, and let me tell you, conditions are shaping up nicely for the next couple days.

We're looking at high tide hitting around 2:15 this afternoon with a low around 8:30 tonight. That slack water period mid-morning through early afternoon is prime time for striped bass and blues to move through the canal. The current's gonna be pushing hard mid-tide, so be ready.

Weather-wise, we've got mostly cloudy skies with temps hovering around 42 degrees. A light northeast breeze shouldn't slow things down. Sunrise was around 6:50 this morning and sunset's not until 5:50 tonight, giving you plenty of daylight to work with.

The recent reports from local shops show stripers in the 20 to 35-pound range have been solid, with some nice bluefish mixing in around 8 to 12 pounds. There's been some decent cod activity too in deeper holes.

For your lures, you can't beat live eels this time of year—absolutely crush it. Swim them slow along the edges. Got no eels? White tube jigs and swim shads work fantastic. Bunker chunks and mackerel are money for bait fishing the bottom.

Head out to the Monument area on the Sandwich side—rocks hold fish all tide. Hog Island's another hot spot, especially closer to slack water.
