Casco Bay still has fish holding in mid summer spots with average Aug like water temps,on Sept 10?? but there mind set has changed and become much snappier, now if the bait will start to move after this new moon little bait does not like to move on new moons so we are moving out of that phase and into what should become a very good fall fishing season!!!The last two morning have been very solid and a few boats at the dock today where proud of there striper thumbs and story's of 20 fish outings yesterday and today on light tackle we had a real active trips on flies in some strong winds, Reports from John Ford's trips this week where good aswell and the crew on the Kennebec had a hell of a day yesterday, sound like those fish are starting to drop and that means good things for us down coast of them, Carp Have been fun on these tides for the area I'm fishing a 7 ft tide change on the Carp flats is huge, the window was short as the water swamped it out quickly but had some great shots and only got a boat with a 4 inch draft stuck twice, On the sand we are seeing a good number of fish coming up and little bit easier to get the eat then last week but short window on sight fishing with the big tides, but the holding fish on the mud flats are chasing down your fly and acting like a stripers and if you are into numbers that might be the spot, don't chase around birds fish the same waters you have been working the last few weeks,the fish where there then and are still there just ready to eat now!! Fish size both John Ford and I fishing a good 15 miles apart ran in some good number of little fish mixed into the groups great to see 14-17 inch striper clean and in good shape. We where suppose to be working on a film with Confluence films starting the 19 th, The film crew who also does Warren Miller ski filming is stuck in Europe and this has opened up a few prime dates for both John and I so give a call. @207-671-4330
