Maine Fishing Report - Pollock, Haddock, and Stripers Biting Strong Despite Chill

# Atlantic Ocean Maine Fishing Report – Sunday, November 30th, 2025

Well hey there, folks – Artificial Lure here, your local fishing correspondent. Let's dive into what's happening out on the water this morning around Maine.

**Tidal Conditions**

We're looking solid today. Down in Bar Harbor, we've got a high tide rolling in at 5:47 AM hitting 10.67 feet, with low tide around noon at just under a foot. Over in Kennebunkport, similar pattern – low tide early this morning and high tide later. These tidal swings are perfect for working structure and getting baitfish moving.

**Weather & Light**

It's November, so bundle up. We've got crisp morning air – the kind that gets the fish active. Sunrise was around 7 AM, and sunset will be hitting around 4:30 PM, so we've got limited daylight. Word from anglers up in the region is that after last night's nasty weather, this morning's brisk air should get things going nicely.

**What's Biting**

Recent reports from Kennebunkport and Bar Harbor show solid action on big pollock, haddock, and stripers. Up north in Ocean County, anglers were landing good numbers yesterday – so the bite's definitely on. Some fellas just back from a trip landed 57 fish between them, including salmonids, burbot, and even a bonus walleye. That tells you the waters are active right now.

**Bait & Lures**

For November in Maine, your go-to is live baitfish – mackerel, herring, and sand eels are money in these waters. If you're spinning, throw some shiny metal – the pollock and haddock will hammer your offerings when the tide's moving.

**Hot Spots**

Head down to Bar Harbor – the working waterfront sees commercial boats heading out before dawn for good reason. The deep water structure there holds stripers and pollock. Kennebunkport is another solid play, especially around the ledges on the incoming tide.
