Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure with your Sunday, June 22nd Atlantic Ocean, Maine fishing report.

Today’s sunrise came early at 5:03 AM, with sunset coming in late at 8:26 PM—plenty of daylight to wet a line out there. Tides are on the move, with a low just past at 2:26 AM, a solid high tide rolling in at 8:45 AM, another low at 2:35 PM, and a 10.5-foot high just after 9:00 PM. That means you’ll want to hit the water at first light or get ready for an evening bite, especially around those tidal swings, which typically get the fish on the feed. According to Surfline and tide-forecast.com, these swings should really get bait moving along the beach fronts and up the rivers.

Weather’s shaping up for a mild day, with light winds expected and a little cloud cover—not a bad recipe for stripers and groundfish, especially if you can dodge any pop-up fog patches coming in off the water.

Recent reports from On the Water and Spreaker tell us offshore groundfishing has been hot, with haddock both larger and more plentiful than we usually see this late in June. Boats fishing the deeper water beyond 150 feet on Jeffrey’s Ledge and Platt’s Ledge are reporting big hauls and steady action. If you’re headed out deep, be sure to bring plenty of bait—clam and squid strips are top choices—but jigs and teasers in pink and chartreuse are also putting fish in the boat.

Closer to shore, mackerel have moved in and are thick around the islands, which has fired up the striper bite on the beaches and rocky shorelines. Folks have landed some real cows lately, with bass over 45 inches reported off Ogunquit and Wells Beach. Your best bets? Night anglers are doing well with live eels, while during the day, live or chunk mackerel is king. For artificial fans, Cotton Cordell Pencils and Yo-Zuri Mag Poppers are getting explosive topwater bites, while white 10-inch Hogy soft plastics and Zinger Flukes are producing along the river drop-offs, especially where herring are trickling back downstream. Keep working those rivers with live herring if you can get it—it’s a surefire ticket to a big striper.

For a couple of hot spots, check out Platt’s Ledge and Jeffrey’s Ledge if you’re heading offshore for haddock or other groundfish. Closer in, Wells Beach, Ogunquit Beach, and the mouth of the York River are worth your time for stripers; the York is also giving up some nice flounder for those working bait close to the bottom.

That’s your Maine coast Atlantic report for June 22nd. Thanks for tuning in—don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss what’s biting and where. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease dot ai.
