  • Fishing Forecast: Maine's Atlantic Coasts and Ice Fishing Hotspots for February 15, 2025
    Feb 15 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene in and around the Atlantic Ocean in Maine, specifically for today, February 15, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the tides. For those of you planning to hit the waters around Bar Harbor, here are the tide times for today: High tide is at 00:17 AM and again at 12:31 PM, with heights of 10.7 ft and 10.98 ft respectively. The low tides are at 6:25 AM and 6:46 PM, with heights of 0.43 ft and 0.26 ft[2].

    The weather is looking crisp, with a cold snap that's been lingering, making the ice fishing conditions in northern Maine quite favorable. However, if you're heading out to the coastal areas, be prepared for chilly winds and possibly some light snow flurries, given the recent snowfall.

    Sunrise today is at 6:32 AM, and sunset will be at 5:02 PM, giving you a good window to get out and catch some fish.

    Now, let's dive into the fish activity. For those interested in deep-sea fishing, the western Gulf of Maine has some regulations to keep in mind. The recreational total quota for cod is set at 99 metric tons, and for haddock, it's 1,075 metric tons for the 2025 season. The proposed regulations include a minimum legal cod size of 22" and haddock size of 17"[5].

    If you're targeting striped bass, the Mid-Coast region is your best bet. The Kennebec River, particularly around the mouth near Popham Beach and upriver, is a hotspot for striped bass. The St. George River in Thomaston is another great spot, known for its large mudflats and deeper channels that attract these fish. For striped bass, you can't go wrong with sluggos and spooks for spin fishing, or fly fishing with streamers[3].

    For those who prefer ice fishing, northern Maine is where you want to be. The recent cold snap has made the ice conditions excellent, especially around Long Pond, Eagle Lake, and the Fish River Lakes Region. Eagle Lake is producing some very large togue in the 10-20 pound range, and Long Lake is known for its 6-7 pound salmon. White perch, an invasive but tasty species, are abundant in the Fish River Chain of lakes and can be caught by jigging near the bottom in 15-30 feet of water[1].

    In terms of lures and bait, for striped bass, use those sluggos and spooks, or if you're fly fishing, go with streamers that mimic baitfish. For ice fishing, small jigs and bait like worms or minnows work well for brook trout and togue.

    Hot spots for today include the Kennebec River for striped bass and Eagle Lake for those massive togue. If you're looking for a more relaxed ice fishing experience, Trafton and Durepo lakes in Limestone, and Monson Pond in Fort Fairfield, are stocked with brook trout and are now open to ice fishing.

    So, bundle up, grab your gear, and get out there – it's a great day to catch some fish in Maine Tight lines

  • Fishing Forecast for Rockland, Maine: Tides, Weather, and Fish Activity on Feb 14, 2025
    Feb 14 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on today's fishing conditions in and around the Atlantic Ocean, Maine, as of February 14th, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the tides. For Rockland, Maine, today's tide times are as follows: high tide at 12:11 AM with a height of 9.95 feet, low tide at 5:56 AM with 0.65 feet, another high tide at 12:11 PM with 10.65 feet, and a low tide at 6:24 PM with just 0.02 feet[2].

    The weather is looking decent, with sunrise at 6:36 AM and sunset at 5:04 PM. The moon is setting at 7:36 AM and rising again at 7:25 PM, which could influence fish activity around these times.

    Now, let's dive into the fish activity. The Atlantic cod, while not as abundant as they once were due to overfishing, are still present in these waters. According to the latest assessments, both the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank stocks of cod are overfished, but fishing is still allowed at reduced levels[1].

    Recently, the waters around Maine have seen a mix of fish species. Cod, although less common, can still be caught, especially around rocky peaks and wrecks. Other species like pollack and coalfish are more prevalent, making up a significant portion of the catch[3].

    For lures, the best approach often depends on the water conditions. Given the tidal movements and potential for varying water clarity, lures that offer some vibration can be effective, especially in murky waters. In clearer conditions, more realistic and finer lures tend to work better, particularly around dawn and dusk when fish are most active[3].

    If you're looking for bait, live bait is always a good option, but artificial lures can be just as effective. For cod and other bottom-dwellers, jigs and soft plastics that mimic their natural prey can be very enticing.

    As for hot spots, I recommend checking out the areas around rocky peaks and wrecks. These spots have historically produced good catches of cod, pollack, and coalfish. Another good spot is near the coastal waters off Rockland, where the changing tides can bring in a variety of fish species.

    In summary, today's fishing in Maine's Atlantic waters looks promising, especially if you time your trips around the tidal changes and moon phases. Use the right lures and bait, and you might just find yourself hauling in some impressive catches. Happy fishing, and tight lines

  • Atlantic Ocean Fishing Off Maine in 2025: Catch Cod and Haddock During the Peak Seasons
    Feb 12 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene in and around the Atlantic Ocean off Maine, as of today, February 12, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the weather and the timing. Today, sunrise is at 6:39 AM, and sunset is at 5:02 PM. These transitional periods are crucial for fishing, as many fish are more active during these times. The cold weather has been quite brisk, but don't let that deter you; species like cod and haddock are still active and worth targeting.

    For those planning their day around the tides, here's what you need to know. In Rockland, today's tidal schedule is as follows: the low tide is at 4:30 AM with a water level of 0.2 meters (0.66 feet), the high tide is at 10:47 AM reaching 3.4 meters (11.14 feet), the next low tide is at 5:06 PM with a water level of -0.13 meters (-0.42 feet), and the final high tide of the day is at 11:21 PM at 3.03 meters (9.94 feet)[2].

    Despite the cold, recent catches have been decent, particularly in areas like the western Gulf of Maine. Cod and haddock are the main targets here, but remember that their numbers are regulated. For the 2025 season, the recreational total quota for cod is set at 99 metric tons, and for haddock, it's 1,075 metric tons. So, be mindful of your catch limits to avoid exceeding these quotas.

    When it comes to lures and bait, you'll want to use what works best for deep-sea fishing. Jigs tipped with clams or mackerel are often very effective for cod and haddock. If you prefer artificial lures, metal jigs or soft plastic lures that mimic baitfish can also work well. For surf fishing, artificial lures such as spoons, plugs, and soft plastics are productive, especially during the changing tides.

    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. If you're looking to brave the cold for some cod and haddock, the western Gulf of Maine is a good place to start. Areas around the coast, particularly where the water drops off into deeper zones, tend to hold these fish. Another spot worth considering is the waters off Bar Harbor, where the tidal changes can bring fish into more accessible areas.

    Recently, there have been some impressive catches. For instance, a 9-pound Maine state trophy haddock was caught in the area, which is a great indicator of the quality of fish you can find here.

    In summary, today's fishing in the Atlantic Ocean off Maine looks promising, especially if you're after cod and haddock. Be sure to check the tide times, respect the catch limits, and use the right lures and bait to increase your chances of a successful catch. Stay warm and tight lines
