A strong-for-this-time-of-year Nor’easter drenched much of New England this long weekend, but not much of it made it to the Western Maine Mountains. My rain gauge recorded 4/10 of an inch – enough to settle the dust, but that is about it. Rivers are very low with little flow and it makes fishing tough even though temps are good and hatches are occurring. Some larger rivers with steep gradients such as the Rapid , the Andro, or the lower Mags fish fine because they are more easily wadable and fish are more accessible and can’t hide in rough water

Southern parts of Maine and New England received a drenching of up to 4 inches or more and that should alleviate drought conditions for a while and return rivers to normal flows.

I have found decent-sized trout in all sorts of places but it has been unpredictable.

A lengthy trout came up for a Royal Coachman, a decent imitation of the smattering of small mayfly duns emerging or spinners flitting about.

A nice trout fooled with difficulty in the slow-moving clear waters of low-flowing Little Kennebago River. It fished over Memorial Day weekend like a Montana Spring Creek.

Bass are in the shallows and pike are still in water less than 10 feet deep so shoreline fishing for warm water species has been fun. Stripers have shown up and are chasing alewives and other migrating game fish. Alewives can now be found way up in Windham in the Presumpscot River now that the dam has been removed and a fish ladder installed in Westbrook. Shad are sure to follow in a few weeks.

A few odds and ends….Many anglers enjoyed the Sebago Trout Unlimited event at Dundee Park on May 22nd. About 40 attendees learned all about the Presumpscot River and its history and then were guided to different spots on the river. Despite low water a number of brook trout were hooked as well as a few brown trout and a salmon and anglers learned where to go in the future. Look for more events like this from Sebago TU going forward.

I snuck down to Florida for a quick visit with my daughter and I got to spend a few days fishing on the Gulf. Sight fishing for redfish and speckled sea trout was a little slow but I did manage to land  in just 2 1/2 feet of water a huge sea trout on a small topwater popper – a size down in Florida they call a gator trout . It was only a few inches off the world fly fishing record

This sea trout approached 30 inches and was so big, that I couldn’t fit it in frame no matter how far I leaned back in my kayak.

Of course, fishing the flats offers many rewards, even if the fishing is slow. Here is sunrise over the flats east of Cape San Blas

That is all for now. Enjoy peak fishing season, everyone. Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram for more frequent updates #mainelyflyfishing
