About Eastern Bay

Set on the coast in Maine, United States, Eastern Bay rewards anglers who time their session around the tide rather than the time of day. Dawn or dusk on a rising tide is usually the high-percentage window. Eastern Bay sees a mix of resident species and seasonal migrants, so anglers who fish it regularly track which species are showing each month and adjust rigs accordingly.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Chinook salmon

    Vary your retrieve speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to, as their preferences can change daily.

  • For Atlantic mackerel

    When mackerel are feeding deep, try using a weighted lure or rig to get your bait down to them quickly. Also, chumming with fish scraps can attract schools.

  • For Striped bass

    Match the hatch! Pay attention to what the stripers are feeding on and select lures or baits that mimic the size and color of the local forage.
