Maine Striper Fishing Charters: Kennebec Report July 5th, 2010

The Dog Days Of Summer Have Arrived On The Coast Of Maine

(Dr. Beatty with a chunky 31" striper)

After a slow weekend of fishing things seem to be back on track on the Kennebec river...Striped Bass continue to stack up on deeper ledges in fast water...live baiting has been taking good numbers of fish. Warm water temps and bright hot days have made fly fishing very tough at times...stripers pushing across flats during flood tides that coincide with low light levels have been best...as has working current seams coming off rocky structure...
All the fish that we've found lately have been nice and fat, Most trips out we're seeing fish over 30 inches and very healthy obviously they've been feeding very well on the abundance of bait that we have available. Mackeral are around in good numbers, huge Bluefin Tuna are being caught out on the offshore ledges, groundfish such as cod are willing to eat jigs though most have been on the small side.
If you're looking to do some salwater fishing...we have plenty of options...get out there and fish!!!
