Good morning anglers, Artificial Lure here with your October 3rd fishing report for Maine's Atlantic waters.## Current ConditionsToday's looking perfect with calm seas and clear skies. York Harbor shows high tide at 4:35 AM at 3.51 feet, low at 10:39 AM, then high again at 5:05 PM reaching 4.4 feet. Sunrise was at 7:03 AM with sunset at 6:47 PM - prime fishing windows right there.## What's BitingMackerel are absolutely everywhere and they're the golden ticket right now. These fish are drawing in stripers, groundfish, and even tuna. Webhannet Bait and Tackle reports stripers are moving off the beaches to rivers holding herring fry, with solid action around York and the south side of Nubble Lighthouse.The striper bite has been fantastic in Maine rivers as bass finally found all that bait. Diamond Pass Outfitters says we're seeing true fall patterns with fish averaging 27-32 inches. Beaches and ledges are holding bigger bass with an excellent topwater bite making anglers happy.For groundfish, pollock and cusk action is strong around 180 feet of water off the Prong. Bibb Rock and Tantas Ledge are producing cod, pollock, and haddock for those wanting mixed bags.## Hot Spots and TacticsBrave Boat Harbor and York area beaches are firing. Rivers holding baitfish are your best bet for consistent striper action. Jumpin Minnows, Albie Snax, and Zoom Super Flukes are killing it in the rivers. For beach fishing, go big with soft plastics, pencil poppers, and Docs.Live mackerel slow-trolled just outside breakwaters is money for stripers. Fresh mackerel makes ideal bait for everything swimming out there.The fall migration is in full swing, so get out there while the fishing's hot. Conditions are perfect and the fish are cooperating.Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to subscribe for more reports.
