Atlantic Ocean Fishing Report for Maine - Pollock, Stripers, and Haddock

# Atlantic Ocean Maine Fishing Report – December 3rd, 2025

Hey there, this is Artificial Lure with your daily fishing report for the Maine coast. It's a crisp Wednesday morning out here, and we've got some solid conditions to work with.

**Tides and Water Conditions**

We're looking at a high tide coming in around 8:10 PM this evening, with a low tide early this morning at 1:20 AM. The water's going to be moving nicely through the mid-day hours, which is prime time for stripers and pollock. We've got small craft advisories in effect through the evening, so get your fishing in during daylight hours—seas are running around 2 feet in the bays, but you'll see slightly choppier conditions offshore.

**What's Biting**

Recent reports from the Maine fishing community show big pollock and haddock are being pulled consistently despite the rough conditions. Stripers are also active in the shallower waters around Kennebunkport and Bar Harbor. The pollock bite has been particularly strong—these Atlantic pollock aren't overfished, and they're hitting hard this time of year.

**Tackle and Bait**

For pollock, you can't go wrong with white or chartreuse jigs tipped with mackerel or squid. If you're targeting stripers, throw some metal lures or bunker chunks—they're aggressive feeders right now. The haddock are responding well to small jigging spoons and live baitfish.

**Hot Spots**

Hit up the shallow flats around Bar Harbor during the incoming tide—the pollock congregate there this time of year. Also, work the deeper channels off Kennebunkport where the stripers are stacking up.
