Seasonal Activity Chart
Cobia
Eastport, Maine, isn't the first place that springs to mind for cobia, but these powerful fish are increasingly venturing into the Gulf of Maine during the warmer months. The unique tidal flows and nutrient-rich waters around Eastport attract baitfish, which in turn draw in cobia seeking a meal. Look for them around offshore ledges, buoys, and especially lobster pot buoys – they often shadow these structures. The best time to target cobia here is late summer, from August through September, when the water temperatures peak. Access to the fishing grounds is primarily by boat. The Eastport Municipal Pier offers a convenient boat launch. Be aware of the strong tides in this area; they can make navigation challenging and significantly impact your fishing strategy. Cobia in this region are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, so be sure to use heavy tackle.
