Fishing Maine ia

Coastal and Ocean Fishing 
 Fishing on the coast of Maine can be out on a chartered boat , surf casting, or pole fishing the tidal pools where reversing falls come back to the ocean.One can fish off the docks along the coast at neap tide.
 Fishing the mouths of the 6 great Rivers where the fresh water flow meets the ocean.Striper bass run up the rivers when the ocean water is warmest in summer, though slot limits are imposed to protect the breeding size fish, catching any size striper bass is as much fun as fishing can deliver.

The ebb and flow of the tides is like the ocean breathing . Fishing can be done with blood worms and clams used as bait . These are easily gathered by digging in the sand while the tide is out. Then used on a hook and fished at high tide when the fish come back in looking for such treats.

 On a trip sight seeing trip to Eastport and while eating lunch from a vendor near the million dollar town wharf.I noticed the local fishermen fishing off the dock. They had five gallon pails filled with flounder. So I had to try it and returned a couple of summers later with my fish poles and brightly colored jigs. My fishing off the town dock in Eastport for flounder and Mackerel was successful.
