Maine Striper Fishing Report Kennebec River June 18th, 2010

Maine Striped Bass Fishing Charters & Guided Trips

As we move quickly through June, we're really starting to see the Striper fishing light up in a big way...This morning we got a somewhat late start, leaving the dock in Bath at around 6:30am. The tide was pretty slack and just starting to turn so we headed off on the hunt...
The fishing was pretty slow but I knew that as the tide gained strength the bite would turn on....and turn on it did!!! Once my anglers got into the rhythm of things and figured out some of the basics, they began to score fish, seemingly at will...The key to our success today was allowing our offerings to get down near the bottom and to work them slowly, bouncing them along gently with the current....slow & low was the rule today!!!
The Fish were feeding heavily in the rips & current seams...most of the action was taking place subsurface as the sun was getting bright and high in the sky...occasionally a hungry striper would rise to the surface to blast a disoriented baitfish...We continued to be productive for a couple of hours during the peak force of the tide and eventually the bite tapered off and we headed to the dock fully satisfied after a terrific morning on the water.



Call us if you'd like to join us for a day or two this coming season. We'll be happy help you plan your Maine vacation!!! If fly fishing isn't your thing...no worries we're well equipped for light tackle & live bait fishing too!!!
