Striped Bass
Striped Bass fishing near York, Maine, offers classic New England angling. The rocky coastline and tidal rivers create ideal habitat. The spring and fall migrations are prime times, with fish moving along the coast in search of bait. Focus your efforts around the mouth of the York River, the ledges off the coast, and the many rocky points. Live eels are a local favorite, but casting surface plugs and swimbaits can also be highly effective, especially at dawn and dusk. A practical tip: access is available at several town landings, but parking can be limited, particularly on weekends. Also, be mindful of the strong tides and currents; use heavier weights to keep your bait in the strike zone. The striped bass fishery here is carefully managed, so be sure to check the current regulations regarding size and bag limits before you go.
