Perfect Fall Trips by
Don Kleiner (9/24/2007)
This morning I had a striper fishing trip on the lower river after a couple of trips with no fish last week my expectations were very low. I was very pleasantly surprised there were stripers on the surface during most of the tide.
Cool Mornings and Excellent Striper Fishing by
Don Kleiner (9/18/2007)
The last two mornings on the salt water were nothing less than chilly. This morning the fog was rising from the water surface just like Arctic Sea Smoke does in the winter on a really cold day. Of course today’s temperature was in the upper thirty’s and not the single numbers that produce sea smoke. Both days have been crystal clear with a cobalt blue sky and little wind. The striper fishing was slower yesterday than it was this morning but both days were very good.
The Fall Striper Run is On! by
Don Kleiner (9/11/2007)
I had forgotten what a great experience the fall run of fish can be. This morning in the drizzle with the leaves definitely starting to turn in the background and we had a steady stream of fish in the expected places.
First Week in August Report by
Don Kleiner (8/03/2007)
Most of my mornings start with a striper fishing trip on the St. George River. The fishing is very good with fish holding on structure in the usual places. Not a wild scene with fish chasing bait on the surface but the kind of fishing a guide has to work at steadily to produce results for clients.
Striper Fishing Weekend by
Don Kleiner (7/18/2007)
This past weekend I had a series of striper fishing trips on the Saint George. All of were successful in catching fish and the good news is that the fish are starting to head into the shallows where they are the most fun to catch. Early Saturday morning was the most successful trip of the weekend with many fish brought to the boat including several very nice fish and some beautiful Maine summer weather.
An amazing sight by
Don Kleiner (6/13/2007)
Yesterday while waiting at the Thomaston public landing for my afternoon striper fishing party I saw something that I had only seen once before. An osprey dove and successfully caught a herring. While he was flying off with his prize an eagle appeared and began to harass the osprey.
Stripers even in the rain by
Don Kleiner (6/05/2007)
The stripers have arrived in the St George river not in big numbers yet but steady fishing. I fished this morning even though it was raining, cold (45 degrees) and blowing a gale out of the east.
