Located in the southeastern part of Cape Cod Bay, the Brewster Flats offers both the challenge and reward of sight fishing for striped bass on the fly.  Trips are scheduled according to the time of low tide, are best suited for those with intermediate to advanced casting skills, and require plenty of walking (often through knee to waist deep water).

The best investment you can make in your fly fishing experience is to become a better caster.    Fly casting is dynamic and complex, but as an FFI Certified Casting Instructor, I can make it simple and understandable.  From novice casters to advanced fly anglers, you'll develop skills to make your time on the water more enjoyable and more productive.
