Striper fishing

What to Expect: This is a four hour trip fishing among the islands of Casco Bay for the Northeast’s most popular gamefish, the striped bass! Striped bass is both fun to catch but can also make for a delicious meal. This is may be our favorite fish to catch. We will use all manners of fishing tactics from live-lining and chunking to casting artificial baits. The style of fishing will depend on the location and feeding habits of the stripers, which switches day to day. This trip is for all fishing levels including beginners. This a great trip to both experience Maine fishing but also to get views of the beautiful islands of Casco Bay. Peak’s island boasts restaurant options and some great little shops. We often fish around Cushing Island which has beautiful cliffs. North of Portland we will fish off of Falmouth and Macworth Island. No matter where you are fishing you will get amazing views. We recommend a maximum of 4 people.

What to Bring: We always recommend layering clothing as the weather can change quickly in New England. A blanket can also be helpful for those that get cold easily. Feel free to bring snacks or some takeout as well as your preferred beverages. Check out our blog for boat snack ideas. Please avoid bringing glass on the boat. We will have a gallon of chilled water available for your convenience. We would love to provide restaurant recommendations for takeout if you have any questions. There are multiple great restaurants close to the marina or near the Portland Public Water Taxi Dock. We love getting Flatbreads Pizza for our evening cruises.

Pick up can be at the Portland Public Water Taxi Dock at 72 Commercial Street. We can also meet at South Port Marine at 14 Ocean St South Portland. There is free street parking in the vicinity but this can be crowded in the peak of the season.
