Spend the day with Marsh River Outfitters getting to know the waters along Maines senic coast fishing from Casco Bay up to Belfast and Blue Hill depending on the time of the season!  Professional master Maine guide captain Andrew Gibbs and crew will work hard to give you an amazing experience fishing for Stripers along Maines coast! We have a fleet of boats and captains to provide many options!

Around here you can cast a line in inshore and nearshore waters, including some spots that only a local can show you.

The name of the game around here is spin fishing with live bait and trolling tubes and worm along with jigging, bottom fishing and fly fishing. Andrew will provide rods and reels, as well as lures and bait.

Many days we can go catch a bunch of live mackerel and use them to lure in some giant stripped bass!

Any keeper fish caught during the trip are yours to keep. Your captain can also clean your catch for you so it's easy to cook. Have a cooler ready in the car! You'll be fishing aboard one of our charter boats ranging from 21-26 feet with room for 6 passengers

A local fishing license is provided for you and Andrew will help you follow local regulations. Be sure to dress in layers and suitable footwear (if you aren't sure what that means, just ask). It's never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen, no matter the weather.

This is a kid-friendly experience, so feel free to bring 'em along and pack any snacks or extra clothing they need. They should always wear life vests, so find out if Andrew has the right size available or bring your own.

There is more than just fishing available aswell as we have plenty of sights and sea life to see so the whole family can enjoy!

Marsh River Outfitters is ready to take you out on the water. Time to make it happen!

We also can check the captains lobster traps when fishing out of Belfast! (Lobster fishing closed on sundays)

Great Day On The Water
3/4 Day AM – Stripers on July 23, 20253 adults
Andrew was awesome! My two boys (15 & 16) and I did a 3/4 day out of Blue Hill for Stripers. We’re all experienced fishermen but know nothing about the water or fish in this part of the country. Andrew met us at the dock on time, rigged and ready. The boat was well equipped. Spent a little time catching bait before we made it to our first spot. Fishing was a little slow (according to local standards, apparently), but it was clear Andrew knew the waters, and kept moving around until we got onto the fish. By the end of the trip we had all landed monster stripers! All were over slot limit so it was strictly catch and release for us, which we probably would have done anyway. Will definitely book with Andrew again if we are back. Highly recommend for experienced fishermen or novices.

Andrew was great. Fish did not cooperate but the weather was beautiful and had an enjoyable time on the boat. Kids loved pulling a couple lobster traps. Would definitely do it again.

Great Guide, Great Time
Half Day Trip – Stripers (AM) on September 26, 20252 adults2 children
We had an amazing striper trip with Andrew! He was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about where to find the fish. Most importantly, he made sure the entire trip was centered around my son, since it was his birthday trip. Andrew went out of his way to make it special for him — patient, encouraging, and genuinely excited every time my son hooked a fish. I’ll definitely be booking with him again! Highly recommend Marsh River Outfitters if you want a great experience.

We didnt catch any fish, but it wasn’t without trying. Disappointing yes, but its the sport, sometime their bitting and somtimes they’re not. Captain really tried to find the allusive beasts.

Great afternoon trip!
Half Day Trip – Stripers (PM) on August 1, 20252 adults2 children
Our family of 4 set out on an afternoon striper trip and had the best time. We caught a huge striper (36 inches) so it was fun for the whole boat. The boat is nice a comfortable with bean bags for everyone to sit on. We had Capt Jon and he was took us to all his spots. We appreciate the beautiful scenery and great ride. Thanks!
