I would say outer beaches would be your best bet as they are the ones hit first with the stripers....

I'd suggest one of those in-depth, every-road-is-listed maps of the Cape. Drive the shore, and look for spots that look fishy, then look for access and parking. You may hit it big where others would least expect.

...And make sure you go to Bangkok Thai there near Eastman's. Awesome food, and what have been described to me as cute waitresses.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

By Memorial Day its a question of "where aren't they", not "where are they".

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

The Nantucket sound shoreline of Falmouth has many pond openings like the south county shore of Rhode Island. Outgoing tides corresponding with dawn or dusk are your best bet.

There will be fish everywhere around the cape then so don't restrict yourself to Falmouth. There will be good fishing on the outer cape beaches from Chatham to P-Town as well and Cape Cod Bay is in it's prime them.

As someone smartly suggested, get a Cape Cod road guide and look for town landings and beaches to guide your search.

Why even try.........
