What's the Buzz About Bonito?

Bonito fishing is like the NASCAR of the fishing world - it's all about speed and excitement. These fish are like little torpedoes, zipping through the water at breakneck speeds. When you hook one, hold on tight! They'll give you a run for your money that'll have your arms burning and a grin plastered on your face.

Light Tackle, Heavy Action

We're not about hauling in fish with telephone poles here. Bonito fishing is all about finesse and fun, so we use light tackle that lets you feel every twitch and turn. You'll be armed with spinning rods and reels that are perfect for casting lures or live bait to these speedy swimmers. Captain Mark will show you the ropes - how to work your lure, when to set the hook, and how to play these feisty fish. We might troll, cast, or use a combination of techniques depending on what the fish are doing that day. The key is staying flexible and ready for action, 'cause when the Bonito are biting, things can get wild in a hurry!

What Anglers Are Saying

"We had an amazing time with Captain Mark and First mate Casey. They were true professionals who got our group fishing right away, helped us find some keepers and even gave us some tips on how to prepare them for dinner. Mark was wonderful to schedule with. He worked us in before we had to head home from vacation so we could make some great memories for my teenagers and celebrate an early Father's Day with my Dad. Fishing with Captain Mark was easy. He made us feel like we were having a great time on a boat with an old friend. Book the trip with Magnanimous Sport Fishing Charters... you won't regret it! We hope to fish with Captain Mark and crew again soon." - Elizabeth

Bonito: The Bay's Speed Demons

Atlantic Bonito are the rockstars of Cape Cod Bay, and for good reason. These streamlined speedsters are part of the tuna family, packing a punch in a smaller package. They typically range from 2 to 10 pounds, but what they lack in size, they make up for in fight. Bonito are known for their blistering runs and acrobatic leaps - hooking one is like trying to land a missile with fins!

These fish show up in Cape Cod Bay when the water warms up, usually from mid-summer through early fall. They're here to feast on the abundant baitfish, and that's where we come in. We'll be targeting them when they're most active, often in the early morning or late afternoon when they're in a feeding frenzy.

What makes Bonito so exciting to catch? It's not just their speed - it's the whole package. They're beautiful fish with dark blue backs and silver sides adorned with wavy stripes. And if you're into eating your catch, Bonito make for some mighty fine table fare. They're excellent grilled or smoked, with a flavor that's milder than their bigger tuna cousins.

Why Anglers Can't Get Enough

Let me tell you, once you've tangled with a Bonito, you'll be hooked for life. These fish bring a whole new level of excitement to bay fishing.

The adrenaline rush when your lure gets smashed and your reel starts screaming? That's what keeps folks coming back year after year.

But it's not just the fish that make this trip special. It's the whole experience of being out on Cape Cod Bay, surrounded by that classic New England scenery. You might spot seals popping up to check us out, or see ospreys diving for their own catch.
