This past week has seen some up's and downs in the fishing conditions in the Kennebec region. Warm water in the river has kept the stripers holding on deeper water structure...while out on the oceanside flats we've had some success fishing for Striped Bass during the incoming tides that flood the shallow sand flats and marshy areas with cool clear water.
Bluefish remain active and we've been able to get in on some sporadic but very exciting blitzes...topwater plugs draw plenty of awesome strikes and swimming plugs get slammed when pitched into a surface feed.
Reports indicate that juvenile alewives have begun their descent down the rivers and will soon be making their way through the estuaries...this should provoke some excellent fishing that'll last into the fall run season. Offshore...football bluefin tuna reports indicate spotty action....
I have been so busy doing striped bass charters that I haven't been able get out to pursue those powerful and elusive speedsters...I have some Tuna trips coming up soon so hopefully I'll have some good news to report.Still lots of great fishing left between now and mid October so please contact us to reserve a tide or two..
