Maine

Well, I'm back from nine days of fishing in Maine. I probably averaged six hours per day.
While I'm too humiliated to tell how many I caught, I will confess that my nine day catch would have been considered average for a day several years ago. I'm not sure of the problem, but the water was in the low 50's until Saturday. When the water finally warmed up, the fish were hitting better, but still not well. I'm also told that there's tons of bait offshore and the fish have no reason to run the beaches. I'm especially disappointed because early June started off so much better than last year. However, I'll be out there again on Friday, as I will every other weekend until mid-October, with renewed enthusiasm.
