| In late August Capt Andy and Rich hooked up with one of
the sharpest cod fisherman in the Northeast, Capt Joe Huckemeyer of the
famous Helen H
(508-790-0660) out of Hyannis, MA. If you want to catch cod year
round, Joe and the folks from the Helen H are the best choice. He
and his partner Joe Wienberg, captain of the charter boat
Fish Hawk
(508-790-9777), took us out into 200ft of water and we positively bailed
the big fish. We had too many 20-30lb fish to count during one of
the best cod bites we have ever seen. The techniques and tackle in this show
can be used by anyone who target big deepwater cod whether on their own
boat, a charter, or an open boat.
If you have questions about any of the equipment used during the show,
please contact us or send us a message. |

| Big cod, require a bit net. A
Frabill
Powercatch net with it's extendable handle was used and ensured that
none of the fish were lost at boat-side. This net was even big
enough to handle double headers and 20lb+ fish. This is a a great net that stores easily and all
you have to do is slide, lock and
load and it is ready to go! |

| Accommodations were
provided by the
Resort and Conference Center at Hyannis on Cape Cod (508-775-7775).
It is only minutes away from the fishing and is also perfect for any
non-fishermen in you group. Surrounded by 52 totally private acres
of beautifully landscaped grounds, the hotel offers a one-of-a-kind
vacation experience. They have a stunning 18-hole par 54 golf course and
the view from the rooms is spectacular. They also have one of Cape Cod's
finest and most complete fitness centers, offering tennis, indoor and
outdoor pools, a whirlpool and a complete spa.

| Special thanks go out to the
great staff at Hyannis Marina (508-790-4000) for hauling the boat in and out of the
water and for supplying slip space for the shoot. The marina is
located on the cape at the entrance to the Nantucket Sound. It is
a full service marina (fuel, pump out, hauling, etc.) that can handle
boats of any size. It is perfectly located right in the heart of
Hyannis and there are even two very nice watering holes located only
footsteps away. This is the first and only choice for transient
boaters staying in Hyannis |

| Capt Andy and Rich wear polarized sunglasses supplied by
Azores Eyewear.
Finally someone has come out with a premium sunglass line at a reasonable
price (less than $80). The polarized lenses eliminate glare and allows
anglers to spend long hours on the water without having to worry about
headaches and eyestrain. All models have 100% UVA and UVB protection.
Never settle for anything else. No angler should be without these
glasses. |
