Maine Striper Fishing Reports 2012

Some fresh fishing reports will start to trickle in over the next few days, I have spent a good amount of time scouting and have found areas where everything seemed normal and fished fine, other areas where it will be a few more tides at least !! The bait moved and got held up in some interesting places, but some was already flashing around in the rivers and a report from other anglers found fish up in one of the rivers~ small schoolies.. I will not be able to run from the Yarmouth Boat Yard for a few weeks due to my dock breaking up as the river channel changed resulting in a few sunk boats and some serious big trees that are still floating around. The team work by all the boats yards supporting YBY was awesome as the royal river basin just could not handle 8 inch of rain in such a short period. Saco area I feel will return rather quick, I was stand up paddle surfing there yeasterday evening during the incoming tide and saw fish feeding in the muddy water just out past the surf line and a hand full of birds working the small rips from the heavier surf. Give it a day or two I think we will start to see some positive reports from Casco bay and the Portland area. Kennebec report from today was a big!!! lots of water in the main channel as with the Andro and the Kennebec. drain a huge part of Maine, but also there is some some life showing as well from reports and the crew up there will report there finding soon.
