About Piscataqua River
As a river in Maine, United States, Piscataqua River fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Piscataqua River pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques
- For Smallmouth bass
Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
- 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.
- For Largemouth bass
Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
