Gear up! Striped bass seem to have arrived earlier than ever this, with great topwater action being reported around the Cape and islands.

Our Fishing News season begins with the happy return of striped bass to Cape Cod waters. Big fish seem to be in abundance, pointing to concerns about more recent spawning classes.

Kevin Blinkoff of On The Water joins us to talk about great topwater action for striped bass, and also the black sea bass bite turning on.

We round up the fishing action in just 4 minutes. Give a listen!
