Anyone fish the salt in Maine?
 

I'll be heading up to Maine in July visiting some friends, they're in Yarmouth, near Casco Bay . We'll be camping and staying right near the ocean. So the quick question is, are there fish around -bass and or blues? I have no clue and not sure if I should pack a rod.
Thanks!!!

bring a rod!!!!! The bass and blues will be around.... Good fishing in the falmouth area. mostly flats fishing in Falmouth. The ledges are not far away..

There are no bass in Maine, they are all in RI and Mass. Only mackerel in Maine.

Getting bluesy in Maine waters
 

Funny, very funny..........

That time of year it is terrible in Maine, don't bring any fishing gear :conf:

you can extend your spring season by like 2 months by following the fish up to maine. its awsome.
i have fished that area alot when i was younger. definitly going to be doing some prospecting up there later this summer.

Any estuaries at all (Mousam River), Popham State Beach, Sheepscott River, Damariscotta River, KENNEBEC RIVER,...
but don't bring rods, don't fish these places, nothing but mackerel. Their stripes just go the wrong way.

I'll be camping right on an estuary, guess I'd better leave the rod and kayak home.......

Good thinking!

THe Royal R. in Yarmouth, Mackworth Island and the Presumpscot R are very close by. Even better w/a kayak.Shoot me a note closer to your ETA and I'll get more specific.
