[QUOTE=Fish360;719469]I did a lot of hunting for striped bass in Maine's rivers, estuaries, jetties, and beaches between Saco river and Ogunquit river. I hit all my regular hot spots (big producers in years past). Skunked!! Towards the end of the season, I went to a beach I never fished before and landed an fish full of attitude! This fish was mean! She drank sea water and excreted salt. Given the tackle I was using, I thought she was a 30 - 40 lber. Not! Only 8 lbs. Go figure. There is something in the Maine's water. :-).
I fished a total of around 3 weeks in Maine, from the Piscataquaw to Kennebunk, with a concentration around Wells/ Ogun......I found it to be pretty good. Every day I caught at least a couple of stripers. Not the big ones I see on this site, but bigger than usual. Had good luck on the fly...several around 30", which was great for me. And had a blast on a couple of boat trips on the coast. All in all, very good memories.
