Fearless Fly Fishing Cape Cod Guided Flats Trip - SOLD OUT
Note:
This is a group trip of up to 5 anglers guided by Cynthia Harkness who has been fly fishing the flats and the waters around Cape Cod for over 15 years. Her business, Fearless Fly Fishing, introduces novices to the sport as well as bringing experienced anglers into her special spots to chase the noble striper.
The Brewster flats are the largest tidal flats this half of the hemisphere, and they were made for walking. Stripers love this area, and while nothing is guaranteed, the fish have learned to use the underwater rivers, drop-offs and ledges to cruise the area. Leaving at the right time will put us on the right spot for fly fishing fun to striped bass. Plan on leaving crowds and traffic behind while you focus on the open sky, breaking waves and that magical tug when a striped bass hits your fly. This is a tide dependent guided trip, so plan on being out in Cape Cod Bay at dead low with the tidal experience lasting about 4 hours.

Stripers or Morone Saxatilis
Strong, smart, noble fish that migrate up to our Cape Cod waters from Chesapeake Bay, Delaware Bay and the Hudson River every spring. They have seven stripes and a powerful muscular tail that pushes them through the water. Clousers and sand eels are flies of choice along with crabs and shrimp patterns.
Gear
All fly fishing gear can be provided if you don’t have your own. Just make sure to let us know about any special requests and we will put the right rod/reel combo in your hands. Plan on an 8 weight fly rod with a closed drag reel and an intermediate line as your base. Stripping basket is helpful, along with stripping guards for your fingers.
What to bring
Its’ important to remember we will be in the elements. Even on hot summer days, layers are a good idea for protection from the sun. SPF50 is a good place to start. Boot foot or stocking foot waders will keep you comfortable for that long walk out to the channels. Mandatory - plan on wearing a hat, buff and sunglasses- both for protection from the sun and the flies. Fearless only takes flies out of fish, not humans! Water and a snack at your preference. Fearless will have a cooler with cold drinks and snacks to share once we get off the water.
