 May 2021
​The sight fishing for May in Maine has a very short just a couple feet of tide but a really fun window the last few days on the sand, water is so clear, but the temp goes borderline for the sand flats quickly, have gotten into a couple groups of nice fish on the incomer and at about 6 ft on the drop. Better numbers on schoolies up into the marsh with darker bottom and warmer water, No magic fly they are to willing eat... SW winds and temps nearing 70 bring it on. Will have a Casco Bay update later this week, stay healthy and hope you get in some fishing.

2019 Striper Migration Map---This year appears to be 1 or 2 weeks ahead of the slow start we experienced in 2018. Pre-spawn striped bass to 30 pounds have been moving into northern New Jersey. These fish are most likely Hudson stock, and they are taking advantage of the huge schools of bunker in the area. In Chesapeake Bay, the striper spawn is on in many of the rivers as surface water temperatures warm. Warming inshore waters have improved the bite for schoolie striped bass in the bays at the west end of Long Island and migratory schoolies are moving along the beaches. Follow along as we track the Striper Migration. You can help by contributing to our weekly map updates—simply share your striper fishing reports here, and on social media with tag #stripermigration.

 ​ Maine Striper Season 2018           
  Happy  July 4th!!
As we move deeper into July my favorite time of the season for stripers starts to  come more into play! sure the active feeds and high fish landed days are fun!! but I'm a flats guy and skinny water sight fishing is whats keeps me on  the water year after year. Here is a cool article on the Northeast and the sight fishery we have, the reports from me will start to thin as I hold info a little more to myself  this time of the year, but feel free to reach out any time  and be sure to check back a few more reports yet to come....

Report 2         June 23 -2018
Portland area Casco Bay Maine  Fishing Report

Welcome Summer to Maine!!!! if the past week or so  of available  nice size fish on the flats is a inducator of the direction this season is going, -I’m stoked!!!
The  returning schoolies as a whole have a bit more size  then the last couple of season as expected, what's really is nice is the large amount of 30 plus inch fish on the flats- that are more than willing to eat flies or soft plastics, this is just fun good fishing we are having!!! There is a lot of bait around the bay and the bass have spread out  past just being near the major  river systems, fishing the tide is key, both incomer and dropping are fishing well----    Sight Fishing has been very solid and when tide and sun match up it's just outstanding  !!!!  We boated  the fish in the above photo  at high noon in less than 2 ft of water,   get in touch if you are needing more info or looking to get out and enjoy some very good fishing…..  Capt Eric Wallace 


Quick Report from Maine Striper Fishing Blog.
Report 1         June 10 -2018
 Just getting back from the Keys after what was one of the wettest Mays on record the fishing in late April was off the charts good and was this past week once the sun came out so we could see what the heck was swimming around us.

After a couple long days and a late night drive towing the skiff, the fly lines have been changed to cool water the Tarpon boxes put away and striper gear is ready to roll, I was able to get out a scout a few of the past mornings and happy to report found fish at every stop and saw very few anglers :)) size was all over the place from little schoolies to largest that landed was just under 30, Look to the weather to continue to warm and  more bait and bass to fill in the area fishery. As the season progresses look for More reports posted here and on the Maine Striper Fishing Blog..... 

Water temps Portland, 55
​Water temps Cape Cod 56
Water temps Casco Bay 54-61 on the flats 6-10-2018
