Everyone Loves The Shark Fishing Cape Cod Offers

By Iva Cannon


For those lucky few that can afford to go on yearly vacations but are finding destinations to be very similar why not try something new and exciting. Shark fishing Cape Cod experiences are guaranteed to bring some sparkle back into the holiday. This is a peninsula in the state of Massachusetts in the North eastern United States.

This is a beautiful peninsula in the North-eastern United States that sticks out into the Atlantic Ocean. It has many wonderful beaches and during the summer months it is a very popular tourist destination. Two of the closest well known islands are Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. In order to get to these islands a ferry needs to be boarded.

They offer a twelve hour outing for only $1550.00 starting at four in the morning and ending at four in the afternoon. This is mainly for the shark excursions and they normally stop off at Monomoy and Nantucket to collect live and fresh bait. Fishing with live bait can attract Blue Sharks as well as Thresher sharks and Mako.

The highest point is Sankaty Head and it stands about thirty four meters about sea level. It has a total area of three hundred and four miles of which forty five square miles is land. The climate can range between warm summers and cool winters to hot and humid summers and sometime severely cold winters.

On many occasions on the way home from a hard days fishing countless people have reported seeing grey seals playing in the sea and sunbathing on shore. A lucky few have even witnessed some sharks feeding on them as well. For the soft at heart it could be upsetting to see the sharks toss the seals into the air playing with them before having their meal.

They are known to be the fastest of the shark specie and their top speed can reach sixty miles an hour when hunting or migrating. Their normal speed is about thirty five miles an hour. They are the most hunted of the sharks because they are not large but trying to hook one could prove to be difficult and one will need lots of skill and patience.

They guarantee a catch each trip they make but that depends on the month. Cod, Haddock as well as Monk, Halibut, Wolf and Pollack can be caught during March to November where as Shark is more prone to be caught during June to October months. The Giant Bluefin Tuna is easier to catch during July to November and the medium Tuna during June to November. If one wishes to catch Striped Bass and Bluefish the best time would be from June to October.

Massachusetts is known to be one of the best places worldwide where sharks can be caught. The Monster Shark Tournament is held every year in the Oak Bluffs which is a town on the island of Martha's Vineyard. Many tourists arrive each year to see this tournament and also to see the beautiful cottages that resemble gingerbread houses.
