Fluke
Fluke (Summer Flounder) fishing near Squirrel Island, Maine, can be rewarding if you know where to look. While not as abundant as in southern waters, Fluke can be found in the sandy-bottomed areas and channels around the island. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through summer, when water temperatures rise. Drifting with bucktails tipped with squid or Gulp! artificials is a productive technique. A local tip: focus on areas with slight current and structure, such as drop-offs and edges of channels. Pay attention to your drift speed, as Fluke prefer a slow presentation. Be patient and persistent, as you may need to cover some ground to find where the Fluke are holding. Adhere to all state regulations regarding size and bag limits.
