Saturday Morning Maine Coast Fishing Report - Tides, Catches, and Hot Spots

# Saturday Morning Fishing Report – Maine Coast

Hey there, this is Artificial Lure with your Saturday morning fishing report for November 29th, 2025.

**Tides and Weather**

We've got some solid tidal action this morning along the Maine coast. Up in Bar Harbor, we're looking at a high tide of 10.1 feet at 4:51 AM, with a low coming in at 11:04 AM at just 1.37 feet. That's a significant tidal swing, which means good water movement for the fish. If you're fishing around Camden or York Harbor, expect similar patterns with high tides hitting around 5 AM this morning. The weather's cooperating too—we've got north winds around 15 knots with gusts to 20 knots, keeping seas at a reasonable 2 to 3 feet. Perfect for getting out there.

**Recent Catches**

The offshore action has been excellent. Just yesterday on the Bunny Clark, anglers landed some impressive fish including five haddock, ten white hake, and six mackerel. One angler, Tom Miller from New Hampshire, landed a double—a 32.5-pound Maine state trophy white hake and a 30-pound white hake on the same line. That's the boat's largest double of the season. Pollock have been the standout species with consistent quality fish hitting. While cod populations remain low, the whitefish bite is strong right now.

**Best Baits and Lures**

For this time of year, cut sardines are your go-to for striped bass and larger bottom fish. Cod flies have been outperforming other terminal gear lately. If you're working structure, jerkbaits and small spoons produce solid results. For the offshore wreck and ledge fishing, fresh mackerel and squid keep anglers busy.

**Hot Spots**

Jeffrey's Ledge continues to produce quality whitefish and haddock. If you can get offshore, the ledge systems are holding plenty of pollock and hake right now. For shore-based anglers, the rocky outcroppings and structure around the ledge areas are prime real estate this season.

Get out there and tight lines, folks. Thanks for tuning in and don't forget to subscribe for more reports.
