For those venturing out into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Maine on this chilly November 23rd, here’s what you can expect:### Weather and Tidal ConditionsAs of today, the weather is quite brisk with an air temperature around 45°F and a northeast wind blowing at about 20 knots. The sea conditions are rough, with swells making it a challenging day for many anglers. Sunrise is at around 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 3:45 PM. Tides are moderate, with high tide expected around 10:30 AM and low tide at 4:30 PM.### Fish ActivityDespite the harsh conditions, the fishing has been decent for those who braved the seas. Yesterday saw a mix of species being caught, with pollock being the standout. Several anglers on the Bunny Clark deep-sea fishing trips reported catching pollock ranging from 10 to 20 pounds, with some notable doubles caught on the same line[3].### Types and Amounts of FishPollock dominated the catches, with other species like cod, haddock, and cusk also making appearances. There were also reports of dogfish and blue sharks, though these were mostly released. Mackerel were abundant as well, often caught while targeting other species[3].### Best Lures and BaitFor pollock and other groundfish, jigs and cod flies have been the most effective. Drifting and anchoring have both yielded good results, but the key is to be patient and persistent given the rough sea conditions.### Hot SpotsIf you're looking for some hot spots, consider the waters around the Gulf of Maine. Areas like the coastal regions off Kennebunkport and Boothbay Harbor have been productive. For those willing to venture further out, the grounds near the Canadian border have also seen good catches of pollock and haddock.Remember to check the current fishing regulations and ensure you're compliant with all local and federal rules. Stay safe and warm out there, and good luck on the waterThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
