サマリー
あらすじ・解説
As of November 3, 2024, the fishing scene along Maine's Atlantic coast is in full swing with the fall season bringing a mix of exciting opportunities and challenging conditions.
### Weather and Tidal Report
This morning, the air temperature is around 61°F, with an overcast sky and a northeast wind blowing at over 20 knots. The visibility is good despite some misty haze. Tides are significant, with high tide expected around 10:30 AM and low tide at 4:30 PM. These strong winds and tides will make for rough seas, so be prepared.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 6:23 AM, and sunset will be at 4:13 PM, giving you a good window to get out on the water.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday's fishing was marked by rough conditions, but those who braved the seas were rewarded. Striped bass and bluefin tuna are actively chasing mackerel schools off the coast. Stripers are feeding on sand eels and bunker, particularly in the south shore areas. Bluefish are abundant in the back bays, feeding on peanut bunker. Big bass are harassing bunker schools 1 to 3 miles offshore, while schoolies and bluefish are active in the surf.
### Catch Reports
Despite the poor conditions, anglers managed to land some impressive catches. Pollock were the stars of the show, with several anglers catching multiple fish in the 10-15 pound range. Other catches included cod, haddock, cusk, and mackerel. Dogfish and blue sharks were also common, though many were released.
### Best Lures and Bait
For targeting stripers and bluefish, using jigs and flies has been highly effective. Baiting with sand eels, bunker, and peanut bunker has also yielded good results. For deeper waters, chunks have been successful for catching yellowfin tuna and swordfish.
### Hot Spots
If you're looking for some hot spots, consider the areas around Cape Cod Bay and the Vineyard and Nantucket sounds, where stripers are blitzing from the outer beaches to the shores. Another good spot is the back bays, where bluefish are filling up on peanut bunker. For those targeting groundfish, the Gulf of Maine has been producing good catches of pollock, haddock, and cod.
Remember to check the weather forecast and plan your trip accordingly, as November can be a challenging month for saltwater anglers in Northern New England. Stay safe and enjoy the fall fishing
