Get Hooked on Fishing with Bait

S Junker

It can be intimidating to walk into a tackle shop and see all the bait offerings. Eels, menhaden, squid, meal worms, night crawlers... Here's what you need to know to get out fishing around Cape Cod and the Islands.

This week on The Fishing News, Kevin Blinkoff of On The Water magazine talks about the basic kinds of bait for doing what you probably want to do most: catch yourself a nice something-to-eat. And we roundup the local fishing action, including an uptick in bluefish. Give a listen.
