Fluke
Fluke, or summer flounder, fishing near Cape Elizabeth can be productive, especially during the warmer months. These fish migrate into the area's coastal waters in search of baitfish. Focus your efforts in sandy-bottomed areas and channels within Casco Bay, where fluke ambush their prey. Look for areas with subtle current changes or near structure like rock piles or submerged debris. The key to catching fluke is to drift slowly and present your bait near the bottom. A fluke rig with a bucktail jig tipped with squid or a Gulp! swimming mullet is a popular choice. Pay attention to water clarity and adjust your lure color accordingly. The best time to target fluke is typically from late June through September. Launching from the ramp at Kettle Cove offers access to productive fluke grounds.
