Subject: Sebasticook Lake, Maine
Submitted by Christian (ip 70.33.147.157)
Date Fished: 5/21/2006
Water Temperature: 59
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Went out to a lake in Newport with a fellow bass angler David. It was one of his local lakes that he had fished before. We got a late start and didn't get to the lake till around 10:45. We went on the north side of the lake and fished the shallow areas. We tossed spinner baits in about 4 to 8 feet of water and almost on the first cast Dave pulled out a nice smallie. We pulled about six fish out of the area within a 10 minute period. Fished the area a bit longer and didn't get anymore takers. Made a move to the Islands and found fish on the shallow points. I tossed a jerk bait and was able to hook a nice two pound smallie. It was about 3 and the sun started to come out and the wind calmed. We moved to a shoreline with rocks and over hanging trees. The fish weren't stalked but we picked one every 30yrds or so. We caught all small mouth and two large mouth. The large mouth was my first in Maine. They fight the same as back home, but they are just a bit smaller. All in all it was a good day, ended up with about 15-20 fish. David is by far the best angler I have met on the east coast. He's got the fishing bug bad and knows more about how to catch bass in Maine then anyone I know.
Till next time,
Tight Lines.... Christian
