Light Tackle Striper Fishing in Maine

All the gear you need to throw light tackle for stripers if fly fishing isn’t for you.

Not a fly angler? No problem.

Captain Bryan is no stranger to throwing spinning gear for stripers.

Light tackle is a great way to catch stripers on your first trip, and a blast for experienced anglers. Topwater plugs, soft plastics and swimmers cover water fast and draw explosive strikes.

Mixed parties welcome

Some anglers fly fish, others throw spin gear. Bryan sets up the boat so everyone fishes the way they want.

Catch and release

Every striper goes back. Bryan uses single hooks and careful handling to protect the fishery.
