Second Annual MFCC Women's Meet-Up

Saturday, April 18th | Fishermen's View Restaurant, Sandwich, MA

Last year, twenty women gathered on a May morning and left with new fishing partners, new techniques, and a whole lot of excitement. This spring, we're doing it again — and it's going to be even better.

Join us for the Second Annual MFCC Women's Meet-Up, a morning built for female anglers of every experience level — whether you've never tied a leader or you've been surf casting the outer Cape for years.

This Year's Guest Speakers

Amy Wrightson — Owner of the iconic Sports Port Bait & Tackle in Hyannis, Amy grew up fishing Cape Cod waters and has been sharing that knowledge ever since. A regular on the My Fishing Cape Cod Podcast, she'll be covering spin casting from both boat and shore — gear, lures, species, and local spots.

Tammy King — A Nantucket native and fishing guide on the island, Tammy King has built a thriving guiding business in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Her session will focus on surf casting tactics for stripers, blues, and more. She's passionate about empowering women on the water, and it shows.

Gretchen Stiers — MFCC member since 2018, President of the Cape Cod Salties, and the driving force behind this event, Gretchen will be at the door to welcome you in.
