Seasons of Fishing in New England

I know that in a short time the weather will turn warmer, buds will pop through the earth and we will be in our spring mode. With spring comes open waters and the trout streams will beckon.

In reality, northern New England offers a variety of fishing regardless of the season. For example, in April try brook trout fishing on Sebago Lake or Winnipesaukee for salmon and hit the small ponds and lakes for fast smallmouth action. In May, try fly-fishing the rivers for sea-run trout or schoolie stripers or hit the lakes for bed-fishing largemouth bass (remember to release them immediately).

June should be the time to hit the salt for stripers in the rivers or out deep around the Isles of Shoals. July brings great night fishing for bass, perch, and other warm-water species, plus join the "bridge people" and try your luck off of the bridges throughout the area for stripers.
