Seasonal Activity Chart
Bluefish
If you're looking for some explosive action, Chebeague Island bluefishing can deliver. The waters surrounding the island teem with bluefish during their seasonal migration, typically peaking from mid-summer through early fall. These aggressive predators are drawn to the abundant schools of baitfish that thrive in the Casco Bay area. For the best results, focus your efforts around rips, points, and rocky outcroppings where bluefish ambush their prey. Surface plugs and poppers can trigger spectacular strikes, but don't overlook trolling or casting with metal spoons and bucktails. A local's secret? Check the tide charts and fish the outgoing tide near the island's eastern shore – the current often concentrates bait and draws in hungry bluefish. Be sure to use wire leaders as these toothy critters will make short work of monofilament.
