Maine Striper Fishing | Coastal Fly Angler

[@AmbitiousAnglerFishing]

What a great episode guys! I am highly anticipating my first Striped Bass on a fly this year, can't wait!

[@tomm6431]

Nice Easter gift. Thank you. NFF on youtube is the only fly fishing program we see. Written well, videography high quality, and real fishing with the thrill of the catch and agony of the ones that get away. Makes my weekends that I can’t get out and fish.

GREAT stuff site fishing is a GREAT experience THANK YOU

[@juans3728]

This is exactly my type of of fishing, no wind, overcast and glassy water, Stripers just love the weed, grassy and rocky areas where they can trap their prey, nice catches Peace.

I’m booked with Eric this May! Can’t wait!

[@robertheal261]

You won't be disappointed. He is a top notch guide and has it dialed in.

[@ernsthorn2788]

It's very nice to see something a bit different. I would love to give that type of fishing a try. And Captain Eric seemed to know his stuff. Nice!

I've fished for stripers once in Chandler Québec. Had a Ross cla5 with the drag maxed out and the fish took line every time.

I love to fly fish but having a light spinning rod and a popper would be a blast here.

[@GuitarDudeBoii]

Yeah. There’s no debate that spin tackle for this type of fishing (and most saltwater) is way more effective

[@juans3728]

If i heard you correctly purchase my saltwater line according to the temperature of the water, my other question which may sound stupid is does this refer to the whole setup on the reel?

[@robertheal261]

Not necessarily. There is no special backing required, though many use gel spun as you can get more on a reel. Generally, salt water leaders are a stiffer material than garden variety fresh water leaders, but they are not necessary.

[@pageba2010]

Sink tip or floating line on your 8wt blackout?

[@robertheal261]

I was using a full intermediate line for 90 percent of this trip.

We don't get stripped bass here in B.C 🇨🇦. It's big CRAP " 25lb +" that WILL take you down to the backing ( knuckle bustting 😊 ). Especially when using a surface bait 😃.all catch & release.
