The weather hasn’t been great, but that hasn’t seemed to stop the fish from biting. Just about everyone who braved the elements has reported very good catches. Trolling on Sebago and Winnipesaukee has been very good, trout stocking continues weekly, flounder reports around Boston Harbor have been reportedly very good, and there are fresh stripers showing up around Boston and Plum Island daily. Some warmer and dryer weather won’t hurt anyone’s feelings and should provide s …

Spring is many anglers’ favorite time of year to fish, and for good reason. We are hearing great reports of trolling for trout and salmon, better flounder bites around Boston Harbor, and striped bass moving into southern New England in greater numbers. Every day is like a new day with many species shaking off the winter lull and feeding aggressively. Bass fishing is also picking up, as are white perch, and black crappie. Trout are being stocked pretty much statewide now. Maine:Greg at Jor …

Trolling for salmon has been very good throughout New England lakes that have them. Many anglers are taking advantage of shallow cruising lake trout to jig and cast to them before they move back out deeper after the smel …

Fishing reports are much the same as last week. Cool weather has fish and anglers in a bit of a holding pattern, as water temps are about the same. Offshore, the haddock bite is picking up and we had reports of bigger redfish. A bit of wind has helped open more water on Sebago and Winnipesaukee, allowing anglers more room to spread out. Reports are good of early salmon and lake trout fishing, with several more anglers jigging for lake trout than past springs. Reports of stocking truck sightings …
