OK, this will be an evolving thread...
Several main spots to fish Chatham are the Light, the Walk, the Observatory... All beach as there aren't many rocky areas around there...
The shop I've used in that area is the Goose Hummock, in Orleans but I haven't been there much in the last couple years.
Good plugs? Light swimmers like big Bombers (clear/pink/purple), Mambos - black, Beachmaster may work in there, eels, poppers for the daytime in Stage harbor (both sides, walk & Observ), eels, smaller needlefish (not the foot longs) and make sure all the plugs are fished with teasers, either feather, buck tail, or red gills (MikeCC has a great selection of red gills at his shop capecodtackle.com - you pretty much need to go by there anyway)...
There isn't much structure as far as rocks to snap your line (although the current cranks at the light) so you can run with lighter mono 17-20# and 30-40#s mono leader. Make sure you've got nice line to the teaser...
Which reels are you using on those rods and what are the rods???
