サマリー
あらすじ・解説
For December 1st, 2024, if you're planning to hit the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Maine, here's what you can expect:
### Weather and Tides
Today, the weather is expected to be overcast with a northeast wind blowing at over 20 knots, making the seas quite rough. Visibility is good despite some misty haze. Tides are significant, with high tide at around 9:30 AM and low tide at 3:30 PM.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 6:53 AM, and sunset will be at 3:53 PM, giving you a decent window for fishing.
### Fish Activity
Despite the challenging weather conditions, the fish are still active. Yesterday's reports from the Gulf of Maine indicate a strong presence of pollock, cod, and haddock. Pollock were particularly aggressive, dominating the catches with several anglers landing multiple legal-sized fish. Other catches included cod, haddock, cusk, and mackerel.
### Best Lures and Bait
For the best results, use jigs and cod flies, as these caught the most fish yesterday. Drifting and anchoring both proved effective, but the rough seas might make anchoring more challenging today.
### Hot Spots
Head to areas like the Gulf of Maine, particularly around the ocean wrecks and reefs, where pollock and haddock have been biting well. Another good spot is near Georges Bank, known for its cod and other groundfish.
### Tips
Be prepared for rough seas and dress warmly. The fish are biting, but the conditions are not ideal for everyone. If you can handle the weather, you'll have a good chance of landing some quality fish.
Remember to check the latest regulations and ensure you're compliant with all fishing laws before you head out. Good luck on the water
