Maine Striper Fishing Reports

Spent the last few days fishing Lefty Krey, what a hoot!!! the passion this 84 year old man has for fishing mixed in the casting skill and wow what a great opportunity for learning!!! I took full advantage of it!!! we put some more days on the books for next year and some good photos to follow soon...

Trucker Hats,Flex Fit,Knit Beenies and long sleeve t's are in,

A mixed bag of good fishing has continued the last few weeks, tides and sun have been key to choosing what you like and where to fish, I have been lucky to have some anglers with a solid back ground in sight-fishing one just moved up from Islamarda to Maine full time and we are having a blast!!! he went 11 cast 9 fish on the sand flats with a small crab pattern this week, So if it's sunny we are on the sand, many trips this week started of first light on the mud flats on Casco Bay and then we are jumping in my car with a smaller skiff in tow to chase the sun on the sand flats or a couple of tides we hit the carp flats,any way you look at we are having fun!!! but anglers who are into numbers the first light bite on Casco Bay has been a good producer for most, I really like the tides the next few days for the mud flats but the wind forecast sucks let's hope they are wrong!!!! Fly wise on mud first light small black hollows or Tabory snake style in the 3-5 inch have work well, on the sand we have had a some luck with some small white or lighter color hollows for smaller fish, but most anglers I am fishing can throw a crab on the longer leader so that's been the weapon of choice,
Lot's of bait every where other then a few spots where the big blues came in a did a job on it real quick, that was some fast pace fishing and we had our first 3 doz fish day years but 65% where blues and not all on the flats tons of fun anyhow,There are some large schools of little 14-18 inch bass around but not as many as we would like. The Bait is here, fish are here, we will start to see them schooling up over the next few weeks before the real surface show starts to go in mid Sept, I have a feeling we are in for a good fall, I will post some photos from this up coming week I have a feeling most all of you will recognize the angler I'm fishing with unless you live in a cave. long sleeve T-shirts and hats are in stock drop a email if your interested.
